Move over 14 February - because there’s another romantic date that’s been making hearts flutter in Malaysia: Qixi Festival, also known as Chinese Valentine’s Day. Celebrated on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month (this year, it’s on 29 August 2025), Qixi brings a mix of love, destiny, and timeless tradition all wrapped up in a beautiful cosmic love story.
But here’s the real question: Are you ready with a meaningful surprise for your special someone? If not, don’t worry we got you covered.
What Is Qixi Festival All About?
Long before WhatsApp and late-night texts, there was Zhinu & Niulang, two lovers separated by the heavens, destined to reunite only once a year across the Milky Way. Their story, told for centuries, still reminds us that true love always finds a way even when everything seems impossible.
It’s emotional. It’s magical. And yes it’s the perfect excuse to show someone how much they mean to you.
