What are the traditional cultures in China?

China's traditional culture should include: ancient prose, poetry, ci, qu, fu, national music, national drama, quyi, traditional Chinese painting, calligraphy, couplets, riddles, shot put, alcoholic drinks and two-part allegorical sayings. Traditional festivals (all according to the lunar calendar) include: Spring Festival on the first day of the first month (Lunar New Year), Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month, Tomb-Sweeping Day on April 5th, Dragon Boat Festival on May 5th, Qixi on July 7th, Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th, Lunar New Year's Eve and various folk customs. China's ancient natural sciences, including traditional calendars, and the traditional cultures of various regions and ethnic minorities living in the big family of the Chinese nation are also part of China's traditional culture.

China culture can be divided into three types: 1. Male chauvinism II. Agricultural culture. Blood culture.

These three cultures constitute the mainstream of China's traditional culture, and with the development of history, their mutual penetration is getting closer and closer. For example, in a big family in feudal society, blood relationship is very important, with special emphasis on the hierarchical gap between generations and status, so family rules are highly valued, and even more cohesive and authoritative than some national systems to a certain extent. In Lu Xun's novels, we can often see the influence of patriarchal culture on feudal rule and people's thoughts; China is still a big agricultural country since ancient times. It is said that the economic base determines the superstructure, and the economic form dominated by agriculture will inevitably produce the corresponding cultural system.

Confucian culture, represented by the Four Books and Five Classics, has influenced people's thoughts for thousands of years. Therefore, I think the most important feature of China culture is Confucian culture: it emphasizes the unity of heaven and man, self-cultivation and self-cultivation, governing the country and leveling the world, and realizes the perfect unity of people's inner cultivation and the external management of the country. The essence of Confucian culture is peace, integrity and innocence!

Secondly, farming culture, family culture and some regional cultures are interrelated and infiltrated with each other, and gradually formed the rich and colorful connotation of Chinese traditional culture in the long historical evolution.
