Chinese Culture: Millennial Tradition

Within most important cultures in Asia, we have the Chinese culture, perhaps the most ancient culture in the world since it has more than 5,000 years of history. It is definitely a transcendental culture based on effort, work and discipline. It is worth mentioning that this culture has developed 500% based on education as the greatest contribution to its future.

Among its main characteristics we highlight its language, the mandarin chinese, his own calligraphy, his painting, his mythology, his music, and his religion, Confucianism and Taoism.

La Chinese mythology It has a lot to do with religious references and the narration of fantastic oral legends that tell us about ancient dynasties, emperors, more than 8 kinds of dragons, the Fenghuang or phoenix birds, and other monsters and demons. It is also worth mentioning the gods related to the forces of nature such as the sun, fire, the stars, water, earth, etc.

Regarding its philosophy we highlight a cyclical view of time, respect for nature, but also by authority, and the fact is that the Chinese have always been governed by strict canons, formerly those of empires and today by Maoist politics. Among its most representative thinkers and who govern the life of the Chinese we find the master Confucius and the great chinese revolutionary mao tse tung.

La Chinese music For its part, it was formerly the privilege of the nobles as it was performed as a show in the palaces. His most widely used instrument has always been flutes made of bamboo to simulate soft sounds of nature. Chinese music is basically instrumental, and one of its best-known rhythmic instruments is the gong, a great percussion cymbal.
