Introduction to Ba Shu Culture

Bashu culture is a general term for the two cultures of Ba and Shu, which are both ****common and have relatively independent parts at the same time. Among them, living in the fertile soil of the East Sichuan Plain, which is mainly based on farming, the formation of a more developed agricultural economy, the survival of the relatively favorable environment of the Shu people's temperament in favor of the sex of the slow, fickle, intelligent and wise. The Ba people, on the other hand, lived in a place surrounded by high mountains and lived by fishing and hunting, forming a relatively backward fishing and hunting economy, with relatively poor living conditions, and relatively, their temperament favored perseverance, straightforwardness, and strong courage. Under constant exchange and development, the two different styles gradually merged. Ba and Shu seem to be separate, relatively independent, but in general does belong to a region, and therefore a whole.

? Food culture is a part of the culture of Ba Shu, "Sichuan cuisine" is famous all over the country and the world, and is considered to be one of the most delicious dishes, and it is the people of Ba Shu who created it. The Ba Shu region is surrounded by mountains, but also has a basin with thousands of miles of fertile land, rich in produce, and has been named the "Land of Heaven", and its prosperity can be seen, and its unique geography gives it a relatively stable environment, so the people of Ba Shu have enough time and energy, and abundant ingredients to create their own unique food culture, i.e. Sichuan cuisine. The people of Ba Shu had enough time and energy, as well as abundant ingredients, to create their own food culture, i.e., Sichuan cuisine. When we look into the formation and development of Sichuan Cuisine, the abundance of goods is one aspect, but the ideology of the people cannot be ignored. The life of a happy family gave the people of Ba Shu a slow and delicate atmosphere. It is not difficult to imagine that people who did not worry about food and clothing had great pleasure to study and make more ideal food, which was not only a necessity for survival, but also became a kind of art of living and a way of life. Commonly speaking, it is to have enough to eat, wear warm nothing to do, and have rich conditions, why can not live better. The special geographical environment affects the ideology of the people living in the special region of Sichuan, thus creating an amazing food culture, which can be said to have no unique ear.

? When it comes to Ba Shu, religion has to be mentioned. Although Buddhism and Islam were introduced to China a long time ago, and the native Taoism has been produced in the local area, we can't ignore the fact that there is also the religion of Ba Shu itself, i.e., the primitive religion. The beliefs of the people of Ba Shu are nothing but the natural things of mountains, sun, moon, insects and snakes. In the traditional culture of the ethnic minorities nowadays and the traditional stories passed down by the people from mouth to mouth, we can also find many traces of nature worship, for example, the Yi ethnic group living in the Daliang Mountains worship fire and take it as their totem, and one of the grandest festivals of theirs, the Torch Festival, has the shadow of nature worship. It is not difficult for us to imagine that the people of Ba Shu, faced with the insurmountable natural environment and its derivatives, could only transform this fear and powerlessness into religious worship, which is mysterious and makes people suspicious. Although this is a manifestation of the low level of productivity, on the other hand, it also reflects the unique geographic environment of the Bashu region affects the field of people's ideology.

? In general, the culture of Ba Shu is the result of the convergence and fusion of different ideologies and cultures. Different ethnic groups converged in the Ba Shu region, thus revitalizing the area. They developed together in the region of Ba Shu, and the geographical environment of the high mountain basin influenced the development of different economies of farming, fishing and hunting. At the same time, this unique economic development radiated the unique region, which in turn affected the culture and influenced the people of Ba Shu from one generation to the next, creating a culture that belonged specifically to the people of Ba Shu.

? One side of the soil and water nourishes one side of the people, and one side of the people feeds one side of the soil and water. Looking at the various cultural types that make up Chinese culture, there is no culture that is exactly the same as that of Ba Shu, which is probably the magic of geography.
