This is mainly because Yuncheng and Xi'an are only separated by the Yellow River, so their cultures in many places are very similar. When we open the map, we will find that the geographical location of Yuncheng is very interesting. It is located in the southwest of Shanxi Province, only one Yellow River away from Weinan City, Shaanxi Province. The Yellow River is called "Tianqian", but the section of the Yellow River between Yuncheng and Weinan is completely different. Its flow is relatively gentle and it is easier to cross the river. In addition, whether you are crossing the Yellow River from Xi'an to Yuncheng, or crossing the Yellow River from Yuncheng to Xi'an, as long as you cross the Yellow River, there will be flat plain areas on the other side.

In this way, various cultural exchanges between Yuncheng and Xi'an will become easier, so the mutual influence and gradual integration of the customs and habits of the two places will naturally come naturally, and the most representative The two most important aspects are diet and dialect. There are more than 250 kilometers between Yuncheng and Xi'an, and more than 400 kilometers from the provincial capital Taiyuan. It can be seen that in ancient times when transportation conditions were not developed, it was much more difficult to get from Yuncheng to Taiyuan than to Xi'an. Therefore, economic and cultural exchanges between Yuncheng and Taiyuan are less frequent.

In fact, during the Northern Song Dynasty, Yuncheng was once the jurisdiction of Xi'an. During the three years since Song Taizong arrived in Dao, the imperial court adjusted the country's administrative divisions to 15 roads. At that time, Yuncheng belonged to Shaanxi Road. Shaanxi Road is located in the Jingzhao area, which is now Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province.

At that time, the area north of Wenxi County in Shanxi Province and south of the Great Wall was under the jurisdiction of Hedong Road, which is the Bingzhou of Taiyuan City in Shanxi Province today. Although during the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Yuncheng was no longer under the jurisdiction of Xi'an, Shaanxi, and returned to the administrative division of Shanxi. However, Yuncheng's cultural traditions have been deeply influenced by Xi'an for hundreds of years during the Northern Song Dynasty. It can be said that it is deeply rooted in people's lives, so it will not change so easily.
