The difference between 9-step bamboo ladder and 1 1 step ladder

These two ladders are different in meaning and traditional culture.

1, 9-step bamboo ladder: 9-step bamboo ladder is a ladder used in Tibetan traditional religious ceremonies and one of the ladders commonly used by Tibetans. According to legend, the nine-step bamboo ladder represents the nine stages of life, and each stage has its inherent significance: birth, study, fame, marriage, profit, longevity, dying, death and reincarnation. The Nine-step Bamboo Ladder has profound philosophical implications, representing the frustrations and experiences that must be experienced at every stage of life, and also expressing the idea of respecting nature and the world.

2. 1 1 Step ladder: 1 1 Step ladder is a kind of rotary ladder widely used in southern China. Different from the nine-step bamboo ladder, 1 1 step ladder has strong practicability. 1 1 The escalator is not only used in residential buildings, but also often appears as a performance prop in some traditional festivals such as China Lantern Festival. According to legend, the design of this ladder is inspired by the snake in the zodiac, and a section is omitted, so there are only 1 1 steps, so it is also called "snake ladder". In some places, 1 1 stairs will be placed at the door of the house or other important places, which means that families or organizations have great potential in good luck, unity and cooperation.
