What traditional cultures are there in life?

Waist drum is the most popular traditional folk culture in northern Shaanxi, belonging to a kind of percussion instrument. The waist drum is slightly thinner at both ends, slightly thicker in the middle, and covered at both sides, and hung on the body to knock.

Waist drums are very popular with people. People dance around their waists and change their formation. When you dance yangko, you have to dance the waist drum every time. Waist drum was first popular in Shaanxi, and later it was popular all over the country. Now, waist drums have been performed among villagers in many big cities. Mainly used for entertainment, but also an amateur life. Northern Shaanxi waist drum is very famous in China with a long history. In some major popular areas, almost every household has a drummer. Because there are too many people, the basic movements of the dance are roughly the same. But in some different areas, different styles of customs have been formed.

Waist drums have been passed down from generation to generation and become our popular percussion instruments. My favorite program of Lantern Festival every year is the program of grandparents playing waist drums.

A burning Chinese knot

Chinese knots are unique folk hand-woven ornaments in China. It was tied up by China 70,000 to/kloc-0,000 years ago.

As a decorative art, Chinese knots began in the Tang Dynasty, and in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, people began to name knots. In particular, the symbol of Beijing's bid to host the 2008 Olympic Games is also the Chinese knot.

The origin and development of Chinese knots are closely related to handwork. Due to the continuous improvement of China people's creation and knitting methods year after year, the word "knot" has developed into a colorful style today, and Chinese knots have its real significance.

Interesting lanterns

China is one of the ancient civilizations in the world, with many colorful traditional cultures, such as window grilles, clay figurines and dragon boat races … but I still like lanterns.

According to legend, the custom of playing lanterns began in the Western Han Dynasty and flourished in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the lantern wind prevailed in all previous dynasties and spread to future generations. The fifteenth day of the first month was the climax of the annual fireworks display. Before the fifteenth day of the first month, the streets were full of lanterns, flowers everywhere, and the lights were swaying, which was very beautiful. On the fifteenth night of the first month, red lights hung high in the streets and alleys, as well as palace lanterns, lanterns and lanterns. It was really lively. Of course, Taikoo lamps are famous for their variety, exquisite workmanship and exquisite appearance, including paper lamps, gauze lamps, Yang Jiaodeng, hydrangea lamps and satin embroidered lamps. On the Lantern Festival night, you can also see the plant lights, animal lights, trademark lights, crossword puzzles and so on hanging on the street, which is dazzling.

It is very beautiful. It can be used as both an ornament and an instrument. It has all kinds of patterns, some of which are carved with dragons or other animals. Some are engraved with some beautiful flowers; There is also something carved in the shape of a ball with gold on it. The shapes of urns are different, some are olive-shaped, with sharp ends, and some are like cows' heads with big horns.

Lian is not only beautiful, but also has a good voice. It purrs like an animal, so our ancestors used it to lure animals. Nowadays, music is still played with cymbals, so it is one of the most popular wind instruments. In Ann, the reason why the cloud has become an indispensable musical instrument for people is because its sound is particularly beautiful.
