There are many versions about the origin of Valentine's Day. The most famous story is related to Valentine, a Christian monk in ancient Rome in the 3rd century. It is said that during the year 200, the Roman emperor Claudius II prohibited young men from getting married. He thinks unmarried men can be better soldiers.

However, a Christian monk named Valentine ignored the ban and secretly married someone else. As a result, he was arrested by soldiers and hanged on February 14, AD 269. In order to commemorate Valentine's brave spirit, people designated February 14 as Valentine's Day, which became the later "Valentine's Day".

In the second legend, Valentine was one of the earliest Christians. At that time, converting to Christ meant danger, even death. In order to cover other martyrs, Valentine exposed his identity and was arrested and imprisoned.

In prison, Valentine cured the blind eye of the warden's daughter. When the tyrant heard this miracle, he was very afraid that Valentine's miracle would shake his regime. So, in order to make an example, he ordered the killing of Valentine.

Legend has it that Valentine wrote an affectionate farewell letter to the warden's daughter on the morning of his execution. The letter was signed: "From your Valentine". The girl who saw the light again planted an apricot tree with red flowers in front of Valentine's grave to express her feelings. This day happened to be February 14, and later became Valentine's Day.
