Qixi, the Chinese Valentine's Day, falls on August 14 this year. It takes place on the 7th day of the seventh month of lunar Chinese calendar, which is why we call it "Double Seventh". CGTN shares a classic piece of Song Ci poetry written by Northern Song-dynasty (960-1127) poet Yan Jidao, on our deepest romantic yearnings, in Episode 22 of "Mastering Chinese Poetry": Tune-Riverside Daffodils.
