The Chinese people begin to understand the charm of Western festive culture .Chinese and Western festive culture penetrate each other,which keep up with the trend of the times and always keep vitality.
n the western and eastern festivals, as well as the festive origins, the most important cultural identity of traditional Chinese festival is a strong nature .In fact, it is non-religious. This is because China early established the worship on the fabric of sociaty in a natural way and it was different from the God of the Western Ancient and Modern humanism .The basic philosophy and ideals are mutual coordination and balance between the gods and people ,so-called "Harmony." As the origin of The Double Seventh Festival, Scholars have shown the Double Seventh Festival originated from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD220).
