Some people say that "Hutong culture is a closed culture". Where exactly do you start?

Hutong culture can be said to be unique to Beijing. A square city, the overall planning of Beijing is divided into squares, and Beijing is composed of countless hutongs. With the development of the city, part of the hutong culture in Beijing has been preserved, but most of it has been demolished. It can be said that Hutong culture is an ancient culture in Beijing. Siheyuan in Beijing is mainly inhabited by many different families. The connection between quadrangles also comes from hutongs, so the general hutong culture is also related to quadrangles.

If you have seen the movie Courtyard with Love, you will find many stories about courtyards, mainly because different people have different living habits. Because they live in a quadrangle, friction in life is inevitable. This is good and bad for individuals. Sometimes it is a manifestation of human kindness, but sometimes it will make your life a lot more troublesome.

Modern civilization is mainly due to the rapid change of information and people's constant contact with strangers, so many people think that Hutong culture is a closed culture, because Hutong quadrangles live their own lives, and the communication between people is limited to acquaintance society.

But personally, I don't think hutong culture can be regarded as a closed culture. Hutong culture should be a kind of traditional culture, which was formed because of the historical and cultural background at that time. Meet the needs of that era. At that time, because of the underdeveloped information, people relied more on the acquaintance society, so the hutong culture was a guarantee for people at that time.

Because modern society is more and more standardized, people don't need to rely on their own understanding in credit. In the information age, the hutong culture appears a little closed.

For traditional culture, we need to respect rather than criticize.
