How to write an essay on Chinese traditional culture of Go (300 words)

My favorite traditional culture --------Go

China has a long history and Chinese civilization has a long history, and there are many splendid traditional cultures, in which my favorite is Go. Go is said to have a history of more than 5,000 years, and legend has it that it was invented by Emperor Yao in ancient times. Yao invented Go to educate his mischievous son, Dan Zhu.

The Go set consists of a board and pieces, on which there are 19 vertical and horizontal lines, ***361 intersections, and the pieces are played on the intersections. The pieces are divided into black and white.

The game is played by guessing the first move, and the player who guesses the first move will play black first and white second.

The winner of the game is determined by who has the most empty squares, because if black moves first, the black discs have to be attached to the white discs by 7.5 squares. Black has to get to 185 to win, and white wins by getting to 177.

Go can exercise one's thinking ability, and children learning Go can improve children's concentration and raise their IQ. A few years ago, the western countries held a chess match between human and computer, and the human lost. But in the Go match between humans and computers, even the most advanced computers can't beat humans.

One black and one white seems to be simple, but there are endless changes in it. The ancient people said that there is no same game in the past, which is exactly where the charm of Weiqi lies, and that's why Weiqi has been loved by people for thousands of years.

More than 2,000 years ago, Weiqi was introduced to Japan; in recent decades, it has flourished in South Korea. At present, China's Guli Chang Hao and South Korea's Lee Chang Ho and Lee Sedol are the top players in the Weiqi world. China, Japan and South Korea hold a lot of Go tournaments every year, giving people a lot of wonderful games.

I have been learning Go for more than 2 years, and I am now a Junior Amateur 2-dan. The road of learning Go is full of hardships and joys. Every day, I have to do dead and alive Go problems and memorize countless fixed layouts. But with my hard work, I beat one opponent after another in the tournaments, especially those who are much older than me, and my heart is full of pride and honor at this time.

Weiqi brought me self-confidence and the character of not afraid to lose, I love Weiqi.
