Does the culture of Jing nationality among ethnic minorities have maritime charm?

The Jing people's productive labor, which mainly focuses on fishing, breeding and processing, and the living environment of islands, harbors and beaches have given birth to the marine charm of Jing culture. It can be said that in Guangxi 12 ethnic groups, no other ethnic group has such a strong marine culture atmosphere except the Jing ethnic group. The traditional folk sports activities of the Jing nationality are also closely related to the coastal cultural and ecological environment, such as "catching a live duck", "head", "arm" and "pole". Among them, "catching a live duck" means putting a duck into the sea first. After the ducks swam to a certain distance, the contestants jumped into the sea at the same time, competing to catch the ducks, and the first one won.

In short, marine cultural elements such as the sea, marine fish, sea breeze, coast, harbor, seascape, Poseidon, fishermen, fishing grounds, fishing boats, fishing nets, salt fields and so on. All infiltrated into the Jing culture. The integration of marine culture and national culture in the spiritual life of Jing nationality constitutes the rich connotation and unique landscape of Jing nationality culture.
