Legend has it that in the third century A.D., there was a tyrant in ancient Rome named Mala Jisi. Not far from the tyrant's palace, there is a very beautiful ruined temple, the monk Valentine (luosi?).ding) lives right here.

The Romans revered him so much that men and women, young and old, rich and poor, would gather around him to despise him and listen to Valentine's prayers in front of the blazing fire of the altar. During this era, ancient Rome was constantly at war, and the tyrant Claudius conscripted a large number of citizens to the battlefield. In order to ensure the loyalty of the people to the war, he ordered that marriage should not be allowed at this time, and that even those who were engaged should be dissolved immediately.

Many young people said goodbye to their lovers and went to the battlefield with joy. Valentine was saddened by Claudos's abuse. When a couple came to the temple to ask for his help, Valentine quietly performed a wedding ceremony for them in front of the sacred altar.

People spread ten, ten, hundreds, and many people came here and formed partners with the help of Valentine. When the news finally reached Claudius's ears, he flew into a rage and ordered the soldiers to storm the temple and drag Valentine away from a wedding couple and throw him into the dungeon. On November 11, 270 AD, Valentine died of torture in the dungeon.

Grieving friends buried him in the Church of St. Pula. In honor of Valentine, later people celebrated this day as "Singles' Day".
