What is the difference between Chinese Valentine's Day and Western Valentine's Day?

There is a Valentine's Day on February 14th, and everyone is talking about this festival, but what I know is that there is also a Valentine's Day on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar. I wonder what the difference is between these two Valentine's Days?
Best answer
There is a Valentine's Day on February 14th of the Gregorian calendar, which is different from the Valentine's Day on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar.
First of all, Valentine's Day on February 14th is a Western holiday, while Chinese Valentine's Day is China's traditional Valentine's Day. However, many young people now pay more attention to Western Valentine's Day and ignore Chinese Chinese Valentine's Day, which leads to Western Valentine's Day occupying a large proportion, while Chinese traditional festivals are slightly deserted.
Secondly, Valentine's Day on February 14th is the day to commemorate a Christian Saint Valentine, so this day is also called Saint Valentine's Day, while China's Chinese Valentine's Day is to commemorate the annual meeting of the girl Weaver Girl. According to legend, on this day, the Weaver Girl will come to the world and teach women handwork, so it is also called the Qiqiao Festival. But no matter what the difference is, it is called Valentine's Day, so dating between lovers is indispensable, but traditionally, the West is more open-minded, while China is more closed, which can be regarded as one of the differences.
