Which province does Longnan belong to

Longnan is a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Gansu Province, located in the southeast of Gansu Province, Qinba Mountain area. It borders Shaanxi in the east, Sichuan in the south, Gannan in the west and Dingxi and Tianshui in the north.

Briefly introduce the cultural characteristics of Longnan City.

Longnan's geographical location adjacent to Shaanxi and Sichuan determines that Longnan culture has the characteristics of both Qinlong culture and Bashu culture. If the "mountain" in Longnan is a symbol of Qinlong culture, then the "water" in Longnan is a symbol of Bashu culture. Because the mountains in Longnan are connected with Qinling Mountains, they belong to the Loess Plateau. Longnan's water is the only Yangtze River basin in Gansu. Longnan is mountainous and watery, and mountains and rivers are connected everywhere. There is water in the mountains, and there are mountains in the water. Therefore, Qin Long culture and Bashu culture meet, coexist and are inseparable here. However, the two are not twins, they are not the same or similar. Although they influence and penetrate each other, you have me and I have you, but they are distinguishable, unique and cannot be confused.

Next, the author discusses some main features of Qin Long culture and Bashu culture in Longnan culture, combining the inclusiveness, complexity and diversity of intangible cultural heritage, dialects and diets.

First, the cultural characteristics of Longnan intangible cultural heritage

Longnan is an area where farming culture, animal husbandry culture and fishing and hunting culture meet and accumulate in the history of China. Unique geographical advantages, long history and colorful ethnic customs have given birth to rich intangible cultural heritage resources. As of 20 13, 3 projects have been listed in the national intangible cultural heritage list and 22 projects have been listed in the provincial intangible cultural heritage list. 69 municipal intangible cultural heritage lists were published 1 time, and 340 county intangible cultural heritage lists were published. Up to now, three of the three national intangible cultural heritages published by the State Council are wen county Nuo Dance Pool, Gezhou, Wudu Gaoshan Opera and Xihe Qiaoqi Festival. In the third batch of intangible cultural heritage list published by Gansu Province, 22 items in Longnan were selected: Longnan Shadow Play, Wenxian Lei Yu Lantern Play, Xihe Guan Haruka Singing, Kangxian Long Mu Ge, Liangdang Haozi, Kangxian Gong and Drum Grass, Kangnan Maoshan Song, Kangxian Suona Art, Dangchang Qiang Nuo Dance, Longnan Gao Shanju, Lixian Guan Haruka Singing, Huixian County.

The formation of the above cultural phenomena is mainly related to the geographical location of counties (districts) in Longnan. Wenxian, Wudu and Kangxian in Longnan are adjacent to Sichuan and Hanzhong in Shaanxi, and adjacent to Hubei and Chongqing. In ancient Qin Zhou, except for Dangchang, other counties were adjacent to Tianshui and Shaanxi. Another reason is that historically, Longnan and most parts of Sichuan belonged to Qin's sphere of influence and were deeply influenced by "Qin culture". At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and even throughout the Three Kingdoms period, Longnan was the main battlefield where Shu and Wei were defeated and changed hands. The Southern Song Dynasty was also one of the north-south dividing lines of Song and Jin forces, and it was also one of the main battlefields against Jin in the Southern Song Dynasty. Moreover, Longnan was also a place where Tubo, Di and Qiang nationalities gradually moved southward in ancient times, which lasted for a long time. These historical upheavals, great changes, and general meetings have made the north and south cultures collide and meet each other, irresistibly integrate into Longnan culture, or promote growth, forming the main body and mainstream of Longnan culture.

Second, the cultural characteristics of Longnan dialect

Longnan dialect belongs to "Zhongyuan Mandarin-Qinlong Pian-Longnan Pian", which is a big classification of Gansu dialect. In fact, Longnan dialect is extremely complicated. As far as Longnan city is concerned, it can only be roughly divided into "Xihe Lixian Film", "Chengxian Huixian Film", "Wudu Wenxian Kangxian Film" and a special "Dangchang Film". In Longnan, even the same county can be divided into "north, middle and south" or "west, middle and east", or even more. If fellow villagers in the same county appear in different places, it is hard for outsiders to believe that they are fellow villagers except themselves because of obvious language differences.

Take Tanchang County as an example. The dialect in the west of the county is close to Minxian dialect in Dingxi area, the authentic Tanchang dialect is close to the county in the middle, the dialect in the east of the county is close to Zhouqu dialect in Gannan Tibetan area, and the dialect in the west of Wudu is adjacent to it. There are many "Hua Er" in Dangchang dialect, such as "fish" and "fish"; Wudu, which is adjacent to it, is directly called "fish"; For example, in Dangchang dialect, "Fan" is said to be "Adar", and the neighboring Wudu is said to be "Zhagang" or "Zhagang". As for the county, the difference is even greater. Longnan people often ridicule each other, learn from each other and run on each other because of different languages.

In a word, the dialects of Lixian in Xihe, Liangdang in Huixian in Chengxian and Dangchang in Longnan dialect are mainly close to the dialects of Baoji, Hanzhong in Shaanxi and Longdong in Gansu. However, the pronunciation of "Kangxian film in Wenxian County, Wudu" is roughly close to that of northern Sichuan dialect. Longnan dialect is mostly a mixed language of north and south, with the northern language family as the main body and some sounds of the southern language family, forming a unique and complex Longnan dialect. Even the authentic Gansu people are not easy to understand, or can only partially understand; As Longnan people, there are also language communication barriers between counties.

Third, the cultural characteristics of Longnan diet

Longnan people rely on diversified crops and agricultural products with unique regional cultural materials to create a food culture with strong regional characteristics, and all kinds of snacks are varied and colorful. There are mainly Wudu potato fried noodles, rice skin, rice noodles, Xihe thick stick noodles, Dangchang Guokui, wen county bean flower noodles, Saigong wine, canned tea in Kangxian county, and hot rice noodles in Lixian county. In addition, there are corn flour fish, chicken, pickled vegetable noodles, bean curd noodles with soy sauce, buckwheat noodles, noodle tea, Kangbao, buckwheat leaves, soft-eared steamed bread, highland barley wine, buckwheat noodles, corn flour jiaozi, potato chips, leek flat food, Xihe Guokui, tofu brain, Chinese hamburger, mutton kebabs, roasted tender corn, spicy potato flour and so on.

Longnan's intangible cultural heritage, complex and diverse dialects and varied diets all have some main features and distinctive features of Qinlong culture, Bashu culture and minority culture. As for folk customs, living habits, human landscape, local products, handmade, farming methods and so on. In Longnan, the same is true, so I won't go into details.
