From group weddings and free admission to tourist attractions for newlyweds, to extended hours at marriage registration offices, cities across China rolled out a range of measures around Wednesday to make it easier for couples to tie the knot on Qixi Festival, often known as Chinese Valentine's Day.
Tourist attractions in several Chinese cities, including Meishan in Southwest China's Sichuan Province, Zhoukou in Central China's Henan Province, Yueyang in Central China's Hunan Province and Hanzhong in Northwest China's Shaanxi Province, have announced free or discounted admission for newlyweds to mark Qixi Festival.
The Jiangkou Sunken Silver Museum in Meishan is offering free admission from August 19 to 23 to newlyweds who register their marriages in the city between August 19 and 21, an employee surnamed Zhao told the Global Times. She said couples can enter the museum by presenting their marriage certificates and identity documents.
She said the museum also offers interactive activities for couples, including photo opportunities with golden bowls and cups symbolizing a marriage "stronger than gold," as well as a scavenger hunt for artifacts associated with love, such as ancient rings.
Zhao said the initiative was designed to embrace the festive spirit of Qixi while also conveying the museum's best wishes to newlyweds.
At the Taihao Fuxi Mausoleum cultural tourism area in Zhoukou, couples can receive free admission on August 19 by presenting their marriage certificate and identification.
Junshan Island in Yueyang has set up a special marriage registration station for Qixi Festival, where couples can register their marriages and receive their marriage certificates on site. Couples who register on the island that day will also be granted free admission to the attraction for life, media reported.
Meanwhile, the Hanjiangyuan Scenic Area in Shaanxi is offering 99 couples lifetime free admission. The benefit is registered to the two individuals in each couple and, in a playful twist, becomes permanently invalid if either person changes partner.
Qixi Festival has long been a popular date for couples to register their marriages. Marriage registration offices in several Chinese cities have extended their opening hours to accommodate couples hoping to tie the knot on the traditionally romantic occasion.
In Shenzhen, South China's Guangdong Province, marriage registration offices across the city are accepting both online appointments and walk-ins on August 19. Local civil affairs authorities said the offices will remain open until all couples waiting to register have been served, even if online appointment slots are fully booked.
Similar measures have been introduced in Dazhou, Southwest China's Sichuan Province, where registration offices will remain open through the lunch break and extend their hours in the evening. In Dachuan district, staff will arrive an hour early, forgo their lunch break and stay beyond normal closing time until all couples present have completed their marriage registrations.
A Dazhou resident surnamed Mo told the Global Times that she had initially worried about whether she would be able to secure an appointment on August 19, but found there were enough slots available for marriage registration.
"Choosing Qixi to get married makes the day even more meaningful," Mo said, adding that she and her husband wore traditional Chinese hanfu for the occasion.
On August 13, a group wedding was held at Fuxi Cultural Square in Xihe county, Northwest China's Gansu Province, as part of celebrations for Qixi Festival. About 100 couples from across Longnan, including newlyweds and couples celebrating their silver and golden wedding anniversaries, took part in the ceremony, Gansu Daily reported.
During the event, the newlyweds signed pledges promoting simpler wedding customs, including zero or low bride prices, while rejecting excessive bride prices, lavish ceremonies and competitive spending. Participants also jointly read an initiative advocating simpler marriage customs and pledged to embrace commitment and thrift in their married lives.
China registered 3.275 million marriages in the first half of this year, down 264,000 from the same period last year, while 1.383 million divorces were recorded, according to data released by the Ministry of Civil Affairs last week.
According to statistics, China recorded 3.539 million marriages and 1.331 million divorces in the first half of 2025, compared with 3.43 million marriages and 1.274 million divorces in the same period of 2024.

B | 记者江玥摄“天气也太会变化了吧！”昨天下午，橙友“一江春水lzj”发帖说，“今天真是风云变幻，天空一半是乌云，一半是蓝天，时而太阳出来，时而飘些小雨，午后雷电交加，下起了暴雨，不一会儿又转阴天，说不定傍晚还会有晚霞。

C | ”到了傍晚，晚霞果然上线了。橙友圈热闹起来，很多人发帖晒晚霞，并冠以“漂亮”“绝美”这样的形容。雷阵雨多发的夏日，晚霞经常出现。

D | 受东风带系统的影响，最近杭州的天气格局发生变化，短暂的晴好天气告一段落，雨水再次成为主角。预计今天上午杭州阴，有时有阵雨，中午到夜里阴有阵雨或雷雨，局部有短时暴雨，明天阴有阵雨或雷雨，局部有大到暴雨。阴雨天气气温相对温和，预计今天最低气温26℃，最高气温32℃。

E | 提醒大家，昨天这样的短时暴雨仍有可能发生，要注意防范。最近几天时晴时雨，当心短时暴雨东风带是一种大气环流系统，它带来的雨水往往持续多日。

F | 未来7天，我省天气依旧跌宕起伏。

G | 今天，雨水将继续在沿海地区“加戏”，部分地区大到暴雨，个别地区大暴雨，明天降水范围还将进一步扩大，部分地区中到大雨，局部暴雨。

H | 杭州市气象台说，杭州的多阵雨或雷雨天气，将一直持续到24日。

I | 之所以出现昨天这种时晴时雨的天气，是因为偏东气流送来一阵一阵、分布不均匀的雷雨或阵雨。

J | 今天到周日，我省都将处在副热带高压的边缘，东风气流依旧活跃，风力不小，天气在晴雨之间来回切换。提醒大家，有雷雨的地区，要小心短时暴雨和7~9级雷暴大风等强对流天气。昨天下午，杭州多地发布雷电黄色预警、暴雨黄色预警、暴雨橙色预警等各种气象预警，杭州市气象台也一度发布了主城区雷电黄色预警。今天中午到夜里，杭州局部还会有短时暴雨，雷雨时局地有6~8级雷雨大风等对流性天气。请大家及时关注气象部门的预警信息，尽量避开强降雨时段出门，在外遇到强对流天气时第一时间进入室内躲避，注意安全。“沙德尔”可能发展为超强台风除了眼前的雨水，今年第18号台风“沙德尔”也值得关注。

K | “沙德尔”（热带风暴级）于前天（19日）上午在西北太平洋洋面上生成，目前向偏北方向移动，逐渐趋向琉球群岛以东洋面，强度逐渐增强。中国天气网分析，“沙德尔”21日以后强度将不断升级，最强可达超强台风级。从目前的预报来看，未来4天“沙德尔”对我省海域暂无影响，预计26日前后将靠近或进入东海。不过，台风后期移动路径仍存在一定的不确定性，后续还需密切关注其动态以及最新预报。除了“沙德尔”，目前海上还有多个热带系统正在活跃，其中有一个南海热带低压，有可能升级成台风。南海热带低压的中心已于昨天（8月20日）早晨5点40分前后在海南省文昌市龙楼镇沿海登陆，登陆时中心附近最大风力6级（12米/秒）。预计它将继续缓慢向偏西方向移动，穿过海南岛后移入北部湾海面，强度变化不大。中国天气网气象分析师唐晓静介绍，它在进入北部湾洋面后，会进一步增强，并且存在加强为编号台风的可能性。
