Experience Dai pottery and Dai paper-cutting, and feel the charm of intangible cultural heritage~
🌤In the Jiayuan Mansion in Dehong, Yunnan, there is an intangible cultural heritage experience area. There are national cultural treasures that have been passed down for thousands of years: Dai paper-cutting and Dai pottery, which also show the exquisite Chinese aesthetic culture and need to be understood by more people.
✂️Let's talk about Dai paper-cutting first, it is divided into 'cutting' and 'carving' methods. Cutting does not require drafts and the like, and can be created and cut according to one's own ideas; carving requires drafts and cuts according to the drafts. It has absorbed the symmetrical balance and continuity of paper-cutting techniques in the Central Plains, and has also absorbed and integrated the modeling characteristics of shadow puppets and paper-cutting in neighboring countries, thus presenting its own unique artistic beauty of paper-cutting. These elements are also used in clothing, paintings, hand fans and other items, which is a continuation and inheritance of Chinese aesthetics, allowing the world to get a closer understanding and feeling of the charm of Chinese aesthetics in intangible cultural heritage.
⌛️The slow wheel pottery making process of Dai pottery can be traced back to the Neolithic Age, and it has been five or six thousand years. It has always used its traditional craftsmanship, quietly showing its unique and irreplaceable Chinese craftsmanship aesthetics.
Dehong is not to be missed. The food Dehong is a ethnic minority and a border city in western Yunnan. It has a unique location and multi-ethnic integration, which has created a unique style of Dehong cuisine. The cuisine of the Yi people is a dish on Dehong. Yingjiangs fire-burning pork is outside Jiaolien, and the Jingpos green leaves are banqueted. The crab imported from the Bay of Bengal in Myanmar is a highlight in Ruili. The dark bamboo dish is full of collagen, and the lemongrass fried ribs are very crisp. Very fragrant, really countless food, challenge your taste buds.
However, I haven't seen it for a few months, and the flower of
Yingjiang has already been opened
I wanted to go around with the reeds before, but I didnt expect it to be spent in Huahai. One afternoon ~
Dehong Yingjiang, take the heart to recommend "free" during the Spring Festival "fun" "suitable for a family" good place to travel
In Dehong, the Silver Tower is like a living Dai girl. She is pure and low-key, but she always has a warm and gentle temperament. She is always hidden behind the gold pagoda, like the sun and the moon.
Sunshine is the source of energy for all things,
and the moon silently accompanied those who walked alone in the night
last years New Years Silver Tower to pray, come to hang the ribbon and light The people are full of endlessness
the ribbon is full of wishes, and flutters in the wind on the top of the mountain, as if through the ribbon, you can see a few people holding the ribbon around the frame
Don't order a light, make a wish?
It is not far from the West Village. It is Long'an Village. We looked at the wrong street sign, so we went the wrong way. When we saw Long'an Village far away, there was only a last minute after the sunset. I want to say, This driver's big brother's special profession has always helped us to park at the best angle. Even if the light is too dark, it is hard to adjust the position on this narrow mountain road to give us headlights.
I finally got off the bus, bypassed the body and walked to the side of the mountain. There was a legendary little Potala Palace in front of me. It was like a painting in the mountains, quiet. The independence of the world, as if no one can not disturb its quiet.
Waiting for the car to get around the destination, the sky is completely dark, the village party secretary has been waiting at the intersection for a long time, the first thing is to take us Going to his house to open a meal, greet us with rhubarb, see who will shake the tail! The dinner was very rich, it was all local dishes. I had a big appetite and ate three bowls of rice.
Early morning, that is, at five o'clock, I woke up, I couldn't sleep, I didn't want to get up, and finally waited for the sunrise in the room, and saw that there was a white smoke rising not far away, at night. The cold gradually faded, the sun spread a little, and finally gently patted on the face, I took a few photos, and lay back on the bed, continue to dream with a smile...
Myanmar is rich in jade, and Ruili Tengchong is also a place where there has been no shortage of jade business since ancient times. An inconspicuous bridge in the scenic area is inlaid with pieces of jade. According to local guides, people who used the remaining jade fragments used to be scraps, no, but now, every jade value here is It is very expensive, so there are signs on the bridge that are forbidden to dig jade. Even so, the bridge deck is slightly mottled and many stones are gone.
The Yinjing Primary School in the Chinese village has a lot of Burmese small international students, most of whom are children of villagers in Manxiu Village. Since the educational conditions in China are better than those in Myanmar, many villagers in Mangyu send their children to the Chinese primary school. Every morning and afternoon, these small international students take up small schoolbags and naturally cross the borders, going back and forth between the two countries several times a day.
Of course, there are also some experience projects that visitors can participate in. For example, there are Chinese and Burmese contrasts in the stones along the road, and translations are given to make it easy for everyone to learn Burmese. You can also Take a local boat tour and experience a one-legged boating that can only be seen on Inle Lake.
There is also a stupa built in accordance with the Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon. The stele in front of the stupa reads: One Tayou and the two, the villagers here take a road, drink a well of water, and catch a set together. Get along with each other, from generation to generation, and spread as a story.
Suddenly remembered three years ago, I took a night train and rushed back to Yangon. I wanted to take a look at the Shwedagon Pagoda in the morning sun. I met a good local people in the middle of the road and took us to the local bus and gave us back. I bought a ticket to the Shwedagon Pagoda and gave him money when I left. He insisted that I never thought that I could meet so many kind people in this magical country of Myanmar.
It was also at that time that I came to understand the reason for the name of Yangon: no matter how dark the road ahead, remember to look up and look at the eternal light.
has been mourning the people and things there. Although this trip to Ruili is short-lived, it is deeply touched. If there is an opportunity, I will definitely go to Myanmar for a while.
In the afternoon, I will go to Mangshi (44RMB/person)
