Tai Ji Chuan's successful application for World Heritage, what other intangible cultural heritages are listed in UNESCO?

Some foreign scholars say that all countries: China is the only country on earth that has experienced many heydays, Egyptian was once brilliant, Rome was once great and once brilliant, but only China lost the stars many times, but Ran Ran kept rising. As if no power can kill it, it can always be reborn!

It is precisely because we have such a long history that we have too many intangible cultural heritages. At present, there are more than a dozen intangible cultural heritages in China listed by UNESCO. In short, a few:

First, Kunqu opera

Kunqu Opera, known as the ancestor of hundred operas, originated more than 600 years ago and reached its peak in the mid-Ming Dynasty. It is the most influential vocal opera from the middle of Ming Dynasty to the middle of Qing Dynasty.

Kunqu opera sings beautifully and tactfully, and the service stage scenery is extremely mature. Therefore, many local operas, such as Jin Opera, Pu Opera, xiang opera Opera, Sichuan Opera, Gan Opera, Guangxi Opera, Yue Opera, Fujian Opera, etc. In the process of development, some elements of Kunqu opera were used for reference.

There are many well-known scripts in Kunqu Opera, such as Peony Pavilion, Fairy Palace and Peach Blossom Fan, and many Kunqu Opera writers and musicians, such as Liang Chenyu, Tang Xianzu, Hong Sheng, Kong Renshang and Li Yu!

Second, abacus calculation

20 13 12. The UNESCO government for the protection of intangible cultural heritage officially listed the China abacus project in the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage of mankind. ?

This is an ancient calculation method in China. Although abacus completely withdrew from the historical stage in the computer age, its existence proved the existence of ancient arithmetic in China.

In other words, in that era when Arabic numerals were not used, China still had its own calculation method. Even when studying the atomic bomb, because we don't have a computer, countless researchers finally use abacus to complete the calculation.

Thirdly, the traditional production technology of Xuan paper.

The appearance of paper is of epoch-making significance to mankind.

The appearance and production of Xuan paper added more legends to China. This seemingly ancient paper is called. Not rotten, paper can be used for 1000 years? !

This, of course, benefits from its complicated and magical production technology, and it is precisely because of this that many paintings in China are handed down from generation to generation on paper, while most ancient paintings in foreign countries are murals, precisely because there is no Xuan paper! ?
