Mr. Lao She recounts the fall of Peiping and the hutong lifestyle in "Four Generations Together", showing many of Beiping's deep and exquisite cultural traditions. Like what spring festival rabbit grandfather, May Day five poisonous cakes, a variety of Beijing snacks and so on. In all aspects of life, there are meticulous and meticulous attentions that have been passed down for many years, including the way of behaving, which is called the "etiquette" of Beijingers. The head can be cut off and the blood can be shed, and these cultural traditions cannot be lost even after the fall. This may have a close relationship with Beiping as the capital of the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties and even modern China.
However, there are many cities that have been the capital of some regimes in ancient China, such as Shangqiu, Anyang, Linzi, Jimo, Luoyang, Xi'an, Kaifeng, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Chengdu, Shenyang, etc., most of which can also be called cultural cities. But compared with Beijing, there don't seem to be so many well-preserved and orderly traditions of exquisite and complex cultural life.
Consider one reason for this, perhaps, that Beijing's dynasty as the capital was relatively long and recent. Like Anyang Shangqiu, as the foundation of the ancient kingdom in the ancient Xia and Shang dynasties, Luoyang is the land of the Six Wheels of the Zhou Dynasty, and Linzi Jimo is the cultural holy land of the Warring States Qilu, which is relatively old, mainly relying on archaeology and museums to store history, and it is more difficult to present how much actual inheritance is presented in the actual daily life and the lives of the people. Like Hangzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty, Shenyang in Manchukuo, and some capital cities established by ethnic minorities, because of their short time, it is difficult to map many lifestyle and cultural relics to the present day.
Cities such as Xi'an, Nanjing, and Chengdu have been the capital for a long time and have many relics, which can be said to be second only to Beijing's cultural capital. This is also due to the fact that the modern economy of these cities is more developed and has the strength to do development, protection and publicity. Even the more ancient Tang Dynasty culture can be fully displayed in Xi'an and become a popular cultural element, but it is difficult to fully penetrate into the daily life of ordinary people like Beijing. Later, like the Song Dynasty's Fengliang Kaifeng City, the era is not far away, it is a milestone period of China's transformation from ancient times to the present, and the scene of city life similar to the picture of the Qingming Shanghe River can only be presented through the imitations in the scenic area of The Capital City and the performances of the actors.
Therefore, we can excavate the treasures in the cultural tradition of the city according to the period, duration, strength, cultural influence, etc. that flourished in ancient history, and then combine it with modern culture to form cultural and creative products and activities and even festivals, and further integrate into real life. 各个地方城市的城市人口都有所增加，高学历有知识的百姓也越来越多，城市和市民的经济收入水平也在提高，象征着越来越有能力和条件复兴各地的文化底蕴。
Only by making the people really feel that they are living in a cultural city with a very high history like Beijing, the excavation and inheritance of the cultural heritage of our cities can be done in place.
