Qixi, also known as Qiqiao Festival and Daughter's Day. In ancient times, there was a traditional activity of watching the moon and worshiping the weaving girl, begging for ingenuity and fighting for ingenuity. Today, the Putuo District Cultural Museum has organized a unique weaving and embroidery exhibition with the theme of "Qixi". It uses six units, namely "Qixi and love", "between the hands", "two feet of elegance", "cloud like clothes", "swaying appearance" and "networking", to let the citizens feel the charm of the weaving and embroidery culture. Zhong Jingwei, the director of the Putuo District Cultural Center, said, "Embroidery and poetry are representatives of excellent traditional Chinese culture. Combining these two elements to complement and interpret each other helps the audience understand the exhibits, and also makes the exhibition more down-to-earth and visually appealing."

"Embroidery collections are usually exhibited in museums, and I was pleasantly surprised to see such an exhibition at the Putuo District Cultural Museum this time."
