Many Couples Register in The Civil Affairs Department on "520" Day. A bride and a bridegroom pose for photos after registering as a married couple at a marriage registry in Jinan City, east China's Shandong Province, May 20, 2013. As the pronunciation of the date number "520" sounds similiar to "I love you" in Chinese, many people chose to register as couples on Monday.
