China has 34 provincial-level administrative regions, including 23 provinces, 5 autonomous regions, 4 municipalities directly under the Central Government and 2 special administrative regions. These provinces, due to different geographical environments and cultural development, will always give birth to their own unique cultures. Then in this era of tourism boom, discover them one by one. For example, everyone likes to travel to Yunnan, because Yunnan has a lot of ethnic customs, it is like a melting pot, so that the ethnic customs form a concentration, so there is a tourism label to Yunnan to visit the ethnic customs.
For example, Inner Mongolia is also a province where many Chinese like to travel. Because of its unique culture, Inner Mongolia has left us with the impression of "wind blowing grass and low cattle and sheep" and "galloping horses and returning to the intestines". Therefore, many people want to come here to experience a happy life. It can be said that each province is famous for its characteristics, such as Shandong.
Shandong, named east of the Taihang Mountains, is a coastal province in eastern China. It consists of an abrupt peninsula and two inland parts, jutting out from the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea, overlooking the Liaodong Peninsula. Speaking of which, Shandong's tourism resources are indeed good, with mountains and rivers, stretching seashores, and 10 historical and cultural cities in the country. The 97-member national key cultural relics protection unit is the birthplace of Qilu culture.
Its Taoism and Confucianism have influenced China for thousands of generations, with a thriving economy and a variety of leisure and entertainment programs. Therefore, Shandong has always been the center of tourism in China. In 2018, the total tourism expenditure reached 104.62 billion yuan, which is particularly outstanding. But to talk about the characteristics of the province here, many people will answer the word "tall".
The province with the highest average height in China is Shandong, with an average of 175cm for men. It is understood that the average height of adult men aged 18 and over in the mainland is 167.1 cm, and that of women is 155.8 cm. This value is not high. The main reason is that the previous standard of living was not high, resulting in the short stature of the parents. So you can see that the height of young people is relatively high now.
But after all, this is the average height of the country, and China's north-south east-west span is so large, naturally there will be geographical factors caused by uneven height. Although there are no official data showing China's highest status, according to an incomplete private statistic, Shandong is the highest province in China. The average height of men is 175.44 cm. 169.45 cm for females.
Shandong is full of "long-legged beauties", most of them hope that men choose a mate at 1.8 meters, and this data is also generally recognized by the Chinese people, many people admit that Shandong people are relatively tall. Because walking on the streets of Shandong, you can often see many Shandong beauties belonging to the "long-legged beauty" type. Even in the draft, Shandong beauties have more opportunities to play.
So there has always been a question, that is, why are Shandong people so tall? In response to this problem, the general Shandong people said that it was caused by the relatively northerly geographical location, eating habits and genetic factors. There is no definitive answer to this question, but most people believe that it is due to the genetic basis. Under the survival of the fittest, taller men can marry wives, so that higher genes can be passed on.
However, this reason may be reasonable, or it may be because there are too many big men in Shandong, and Shandong girls are generally not short, so I heard that many Shandong women have a mate selection view of about 1.8 meters. In this regard, many Shandong girls said that the short height here will be particularly abrupt, and height seems to have become a keynote. In order not to let their children be treated coldly, they hope to marry taller men, after all, there are so many tall men here.
