As a post-00 generation, what do you think of Shandong New Year greeting culture?

As a post-00 generation, I think Shandong New Year greeting culture deserves our respect. Shandong has always had the reputation of "the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, the state of etiquette". Shandong has a long history, which is the source of Chinese culture and one of the important birthplaces of the Chinese nation. In terms of cultural etiquette inheritance, Shandong people are indeed ahead of many regions. Let's talk in detail!

? The Origin of the kowtow ceremony Every New Year, the kowtow ceremony of Shandong people will rush to the hot search, but as early as 2,000 years ago, China kowtowed to his elders to show his respect.

According to records, before the Eastern Han Dynasty, both civilians and nobles sat on the floor, that is, their buttocks sat on their legs to keep up. But if guests or elders come to our house, or we want to express our gratitude, the posture will change from kneeling to kneeling, and then we will bend over and support the ground with our hands. This is the so-called kneeling ceremony.

? We can't criticize it as vulgar at will. The custom of kowtowing to celebrate the New Year in Shandong has never stopped. Many people think that kowtowing in Shandong is vulgar and should be banned. Just last year, a blogger posted an article "Collective kowtowing, this trend will not last long" on social networks, which triggered a heated discussion among netizens.

In my opinion, we should not criticize the local manners and customs as vulgar at will. Because every place has its own customs and habits, for example, there are different cultural differences between the north and the south during the Spring Festival, and the existence of each custom is reasonable.

? Local customs should respect the old saying: different winds in ten miles, different customs in a hundred miles, and no sympathy in a thousand miles. Like the Torch Festival of the Yi people, the Water-splashing Festival of the Dai people, and even the different customs and habits in different parts of the country during the New Year, it is a normal ceremony. In fact, we can take kowtowing as a tribute to our ancestors' parents and a nostalgia for our hometown. Moreover, any traditional customs and habits in China are worthy of our respect without disturbing social order.

The above are some of my views on Shandong's New Year culture, hoping to help you!
