Sociological research: Why should Guangdong coastal areas pay more attention to traditional folk customs than inland areas?

There may be several reasons: first, before the reform and opening up, Guangdong's coastal areas were relatively backward, and the lifestyles of backward places did not change much, making it easier to retain traditional things;

Second, there are many overseas Chinese hometowns in Guangdong, and traditional customs are more cordial in the memory of overseas Chinese. The interaction of overseas Chinese has promoted the inheritance and development of traditional folk customs;

Third, Guangdong is adjacent to Hong Kong and Macao and close to Taiwan Province Province. These places have not broken the "four old", and the traditional culture of China has continued, which has also affected the protection and inheritance of traditional folk customs in Guangdong coastal areas.

The role of a single factor is limited, and a variety of internal and external factors have combined to create this situation.
