The characteristics of Yunnan folk songs are:

Yunnan folk songs can be divided into four categories: folk songs, minor songs, labor songs and dance songs. Some places of Han folk songs are called "tune" or "tune", others are called "tune", and folk songs are called "Shan Ye songs". Because this kind of folk songs are mainly sung in Shan Ye and fields, the singing environment leads to most of these folk songs being free and unrestrained.

This kind of folk song mostly takes the form of duet or solo. In duet, because the other party will keep a certain distance, it will attract the attention of the other party and arouse the emotional reaction of the other party. So we often sing a long introduction first, and then sing the main content.

This kind of folk songs is the most distinctive part of Yunnan Han folk songs, and because of their different styles, most of them have no fixed lyrics, and most of them are improvised, which can best show the artist's artistic talent. Yunnan Han folk songs are unique in style and beautiful in melody, which have great influence in China, such as Picking Tea, butterfly spring Border and Running Water.
