Abstract

Based on the literature of the Yunxi Qixi Festival, this paper studied on its local origin in order to clarify the pseudo-propositional characteristics of origin place of the Qixi Festival and the true propositional characteristics of the national popularity of the Qixi Festival. By means of a literature study, a hypothesis was raised that the Qixi Festival and the legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl were developed separately at first, and then the two merged, and finally formed today's form.The materials of the Yunxi Qixi Festival were untrue, and they were constructed by today's people, which were obviously suspected of intentionally establishing the natural and cultural landscape of the legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl. These natural and cultural landscapes constructed by today's people could not be said to had been built by the ancients, otherwise there were deception. There was nothing bad about the natural and cultural landscape built by people, which showed that Yunxi people loveed the Qixi Festival more.
