In China, four legends of love shape the people's attitude even to this day. In Chinese culture, love transcends life and death, like the young lovers whose souls fly together as butterflies. Love spans heaven and earth, like the Goddess of Weaving and her shepherd lover separated by the Milky Way. Love binds spirits with mortals, like the white snake spirit who risks her immortality for her human lover. Love shatters walls and kings, like the grieving widow whose tears tore down the Great Wall.
