What are the cultural differences between North and South?

1, dietary cultural differences: because the climate in the north is more suitable for planting millet, wheat and corn, while the south is more suitable for planting rice. Therefore, most northerners take pasta as their staple food, while southerners generally eat rice.

2. Language and culture differences: The great differences between the North and the South also come from language and culture. There are many plains and few mountains in the north, and in ancient times, the transportation was convenient and fast, so in the constant running-in communication, everyone's language has become almost the same, which is not much different from Mandarin and is at a level that everyone can understand.

In the south, there are many mountains and hills. In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient and communication was difficult, so the language gap between people in different places was very large.

3. Differences in living habits: The differences in living habits between the north and the south show the differences between the two regional cultures to a certain extent: the exquisiteness of southerners is in sharp contrast with the rudeness of northerners.

4. The difference between traditional houses: the roofs of houses in southern areas are mostly spires with large slopes, which are conducive to drainage; However, the roofs of residential houses in northern China are mostly small slopes, and some even flat roofs, which is related to less precipitation. Houses in southern China usually have large windows, which are conducive to lighting and ventilation; However, the windows of residential houses in the northern region are usually small, which is beneficial to keep warm in winter.

5. Physical difference: The difference of height and weight is mainly influenced by two factors: environment and food. Generally speaking, people who live in grassland, plateau, high latitude and cold climate and live on wheat flour are burly. People who live in tropical and subtropical islands and coastal plains, engage in farming and live on rice are short.
