It is the Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival according to the Chinese lunar calendar, which is traditionally celebrated as a festival, mostly kown as ‘The Begging Festival’ or ‘The Daughter's Festival’, on which girls pray to the Weaving-Maid for her blessing on their needlework. A romantic love story about Cowherd and Weaving-Maid is also related to this festival and their story will be retold during our event.
