Silkworms walk on mulberry leaves, and I travel on the earth. Hi, everyone, we meet again!

speaking of Dechang's tourism resources, the folk customs of Lisu people are really worth knowing.

In a broad sense, Lisu people belong to the South Asian type of Mongolian race, and their national language belongs to the Yi branch of the Tibeto-Burman language family of Sino-Tibetan language family. Their characters are divided into new and old Lisu languages, and they generally believe in primitive religions.

In China, the Lisu nationality is a member of 56 ethnic families, which originated from the ancient Bianqiang ethnic group and has a close relationship with the Yi people. It is mainly distributed in the basin areas of Nujiang River and Enmeikaijiang River (a tributary of Irrawaddy River), that is, the border areas of Yunnan, China, Tibet and Kachin, Myanmar.

Lisu people in Dechang, Sichuan Province migrated from Miyi County, and settled in Jinsha and Nanshan townships in Dechang over the years, with a population of about 7,-8,.

Jinchang Jinsha Township is located in the southeast of the county, about 3 kilometers away from the county seat, and National Highway 18 winds through the front door. Nanshan Township is in the south of the middle of Dechang County, about 25 kilometers away from the county seat, and there is a direct county road, which is also very convenient to come and go.

The Lisu people in Dechang are good at living, not only hardworking and kind, but also brave and smart. In the past, farming and hunting were the mainstay, but now men don't hunt, but they have become the bane of wild poison bee. They have been continuing the custom of catching and raising wild bees. When you walk into the residential area of Lisu people in Dechang County, you will find many Lisu people's houses with wasps flying back and forth, forming a unique landscape.

It's a landscape, which may be for Lisu people, but it's not the case for the guests who go to play. People in cities who usually yell when they see bees wandering around are even more afraid of wild poison bee, so it's best not to provoke them easily.

Lisu women are good at weaving fire grass linen and handmade wool belts, especially hand-sewn and embroidered women's dresses. The dress embroidery of middle-aged and elderly people is simple and bright in lines and patterns, which looks simple and elegant; Young people's clothing, bright and dazzling, with strong contrast, pays attention to color selection, pattern collocation, complicated and delicate embroidery, and embodies a unique style.

Lisu embroidery is made of special materials, with various ornamentation methods and a wide selection of patterns, and its embroidery style is strongly national and regional. With rich patterns, exquisite skills and unique techniques, it is a beautiful flower in the treasure house of Chinese embroidery culture, which is of great value to the study of Lisu people's clothing technology, history and culture, social development and spiritual belief. Lisu people love singing and dancing, and they should sing and dance (duet) at weddings, funerals and celebrations. The wedding is very mysterious, and the groomsman, maid of honor and the bride and groom must sleep in the same bed when entering the bridal chamber, so as to have a good night.

They are also good at making various national musical instruments. Bamboo kouxian, also known as "harmonica", "chime", "blow" and "pluck", is a tiny musical instrument that sounds by blowing or pulling the tongue. Carving patterns on the outer tube of bamboo string can not only be used for decoration, but also express feelings about life at any time. Therefore, it is the favorite thing for Lisu women to wear. The production of bamboo oral string depends entirely on the experience and understanding of the producer to determine its pitch, timbre and intonation, which contains rich scientific cognition, is the condensation of outstanding wisdom of Lisu national craftsmen, and has high technological and aesthetic value.

Lisu people can't live without Hulusheng in their daily life, productive labor, festivals, weddings and funerals. Women of Lisu nationality in Dechang like to play string, while men like to play Hulusheng, most of which are self-made five-tube Hulusheng. Most Lisu adult men in Jinsha Township and Nanshan Township of Dechang County can make Hulusheng, and the relationship between teachers and students is family-based, from generation to generation. Hulusheng's temperament, timbre and playing skills are unique, which is a rare treasure in the treasure house of Chinese national musical instruments.

In addition, the intangible cultural heritage of Lisu people in Dechang County is quite rich and unique. The Lisu people's original songs and dances, costumes, wedding customs, wide seasons, kouxian, Hulusheng, fire grass weaving skills, folk literature, etc. are all extremely valuable intangible cultural heritage with the most national characteristics in this county.

Due to the uniqueness and preciousness of its culture, the Lisu people in Dechang have successfully applied for one national, nine provincial and four state-level Lisu intangible cultural heritage project.
