Version 1:
The first strange thing is that eggs are sold in the form of skewers: in order to facilitate buyers to carry their eggs without being damaged, local villagers weave bamboo sticks or wheat straws against eggshells, each of which is separate, and ten can be hung on the wall and eat as much as they want.
The second strange thing is to take off the hat and use it as a pot cover: there are many bamboo forests in Yunnan, so many utensils are made of bamboo. The pot cover is similar to the hat in the mainland, but the top is slightly smaller, which is easy to grasp. When used as a pot cover, it is breathable and warm, and the cooked rice is more fragrant.
The third blame is "three mosquitoes and one dish": In many areas of Yunnan, the weather is hot, and there are many mosquitoes and flies all year round, especially in the wild and livestock pens, so it is exaggerated to say that "three mosquitoes and one dish".
Fourth, the fire pipe can be used as a hookah: the pipe used by local people to smoke is very similar to that used in the mainland, except that the fire pipe is blown out and sucked in. Flue gas can be filtered with water to reduce tar concentration and taste more refreshing and mellow.
The fifth monster, Baba, is called bait block: rice produced in Yunnan is very fragrant and glutinous. After the rice is steamed and cooked, it is kneaded into a long semi-finished product, which can be fried, boiled and steamed. The color is as white as snow, like the white rice cake made in the mainland, which is called bait block locally.
The sixth monster, carrying a doll to fall in love: the local ethnic minorities are looking forward to a prosperous population, and their daughter-in-law returns home within a few days of marriage. When they have a doll, they will return to their in-laws and start a real love.
The seventh freak, wearing clothes of the four seasons: Yunnan's climate is changeable, neither hot in summer nor cold in winter. The temperature difference between day and night is large, which can be said to be a hot and cold transient. The clothes of the four seasons can be seen everywhere in the street, long and short, thick and thin, colorful and colorful.
Eighth strange, grasshoppers can be used as appetizers: people in many places in Yunnan have a hobby of eating insects, turning pests into delicious food and insects into delicious food, so grasshoppers, locusts and so on. It is a delicious appetizer because it is crispy after frying.
The ninth monster, the girl is called the old lady: in some areas of Yunnan, the accent is different from that of the empress. Calling a girl actually refers to an aunt and an empress, but calling an aunt and an empress is an old lady, so you ask a girl that he is called an old lady, and calling an old lady means that mainlanders call an aunt.
The Naxi nationality in Lijiang is headed by an old lady. They are responsible for housework and are very hardworking, so they are respected by everyone.
The tenth strange thing is that monks can fall in love: Yunnan borders several Southeast Asian countries that believe in Buddhism, and men in these Buddhist countries all go to temples to become monks, just like going to school or doing military service in the mainland. At that time, they could also get married and have children, and influenced by it, the border people also wore monk clothes to fall in love.
The eleventh strange thing is that the old lady climbs mountains faster than monkeys: Yunnan has many mountains and deep valleys, and local women have been hardworking since childhood. They are used to climbing mountains and chopping wood, so they have strong bodies and feet. Old people in their seventies and eighties often climb mountains like on the ground.
The twelfth strange thing is to make up a piece at the back of the new shoes: ethnic minority women make shoes with cloth behind embroidered shoes and embroider them carefully.
It is not only beautiful, but also has practical value of retaining ash and mud.
The thirteenth blame is that cars are faster than trains: because there are many mountains and canyons, Yunnan's railways have large slopes and many bends, which makes the speed of trains extremely slow, forming a unique landscape that trains are not as fast as cars.
The fourteenth monster, toes are away all the year round: Yunnan is full of mountains and mountains, so it is not convenient to walk. Climbing more mountains, running more, sweating more feet, you can make shallow shoes to expose your toes and feel cooler.
The fifteenth monster, dolls are all brought by men: it is a fashion for men to love their wives and children here, and "model husbands and excellent fathers" are everywhere in the streets.
The sixteenth monster, selling peanuts and broad beans in piles: In the old days, Yunnan was virtuous and liked to barter things, and was ashamed to talk about commodity trading. As a result, peanuts and broad beans are sold in piles, and people's hearts are like that.
Strange 17, it rains here and basks there: this sentence is used to describe Yunnan's special geographical location and changeable climate in different days.
Ten miles apart, there will be different weather scenes, and both sides of the same mountain are sunny and rainy.
Cold air from the east is blocked in Wumeng Mountain between Yunnan and Guizhou, and it is difficult for the front to enter Yunnan, making Yunnan "like spring all the year round".
The eighteenth monster, four bamboo rats and a sack: there are many bamboo forests and bamboo shoots in the mountainous area.
Most mice that eat bamboo shoots are fat, and their appearance is very different from that of domestic mice.
It's better to entertain guests with such delicacies than chickens and geese.
Version 2:
1. Cooking and selling with a bamboo tube as a pot: Cooking with a pot is an eternal custom, but in Xishuangbanna and other areas, people can often see cylindrical bamboo tube rice cooked with a bamboo tube instead of a pot, which is wrapped in a layer of white bamboo pulp and smells fragrant.
2. Making milk into a fan for sale: Deng Chuan Bazi, Eryuan, Dali, located at the foot of Cangshan Mountain and on the bank of Erhai Lake, made a fan-shaped bean curd skin made of milk through a special process, commonly known locally as "milk fan", which is a favorite of thousands of households in Yunnan.
Third, everyone loves crossing the bridge rice noodles: Yunnan crossing the bridge rice noodles are characterized by white rice noodles, exquisite materials, mixed meat and vegetables, oily but not greasy, delicious and suitable for all ages.
Boiling chicken soup with raw meat, lettuce and rice paste constitutes the most famous flavor in Yunnan: a kind of "thread" and "crossing the bridge rice noodles".
4. Straw hat as a pot cover: Straw hat is a craft that all ethnic groups in Yunnan are particularly good at. Straw chairs, straw piers, straw curtains and pot covers can be seen everywhere.
Outsiders are dazzled by the world of straw weaving, and it is of course strange to mistake a straw hat with similar appearance for a pot cover.
5. Rice Baba is called bait block: In ancient China, dry food and snacks made of rice into cakes were called "bait", which was convenient to carry and eat.
Speaking of "bait" is a bit like fishing bait, but it is more accurate to describe it as Beijing's three-residue cake (referring to color and shape).
6. Eggs tied to grass for sale: Yunnan mountainous areas account for more than 90%, and the roads are bumpy. The villagers rushed to sell eggs and wrapped them in straw to prevent the eggshells from breaking and facilitate sales.
Seven, three grasshoppers and one dish: Yunnan cuisine source Under certain historical conditions, people eat moss, fungi, bamboo worms, bee pupae and fried grasshoppers, which looks crispy and delicious.
The product has no insect smell and is crispy.
Eight, steamed chicken sold through the hole in the earthen pot: According to legend, in ancient times, a clever chef steamed a fragrant and tender "steamed chicken" through the hole in the earthen pot, which meant "repairing righteousness" and was widely circulated among the people and became a famous product in Yunnan cuisine.
Love and Song Love: Yunnan ethnic minorities can sing and dance well, and singing is indispensable during festivals and celebrations. Young people often start to talk about love with songs.
10. Use bamboo tubes to make tobacco bags: Yunnan is rich in bamboo resources, and bamboo is also widely used, such as bamboo houses, bamboo chairs, bamboo hats and so on.
Especially bamboo chimneys are the most distinctive. When the smoke passes through the bamboo chimney that stores water, it makes a rhythmic glug sound, moistens the throat, and is colorful and delicious.
1 1. Xingyun Lake Fish Community: At the junction of Xingyun Lake in Jiangchuan, Yunnan and Fuxian Lake in Chengjiang, although the water is connected, the fish in the two lakes do not communicate with each other. The herring in Fuxian Lake in the east and the yellow croaker in Xingyun Lake in the west turn here with the boundary fish stone as the boundary.
Twelve, the bride should wear sunglasses: the day before the wedding, the bride will say goodbye to her parents and cry to marry, crying to marry is not good.
So the eyes will cry swollen on the wedding day, and wearing sunglasses can cover the swollen eyes.
Thirteen, dolls go out with men: in the eyes of the Han people, this is a reversal of roles, but in fact, they don't understand gender equality.
The mountains in Yunnan are high and steep, and men carrying dolls are not only safe and reliable, but also show the true nature of men.
14. Wear clothes in all seasons: Kunming is known as the "Spring City", with an average annual temperature of 2 1- 10 degrees. "Dressing in disorder in four seasons" has become a major feature of Kunming.
Wuhan also has such a season, not "dressing indiscriminately in four seasons", but "dressing indiscriminately in February, April and August (lunar calendar)".
Fifteen, the marble head is sold as a painting: the marble texture is delicate, smooth and moist, and the pattern is bright.
Marble with exquisite composition and color is called natural stone painting, which has high artistic appreciation value and is sold as "stone painting".
16. Trains are not as fast as cars: before quasi-gauge railways appeared in Yunnan, there were meter-gauge railways at the beginning of this century. Because there are many holes in the peaks and valleys, the trains run around the mountains, sometimes even not as fast as ox carts, and the speed is only about 30 to 40 kilometers per hour. Yunnan has the only "inch track" (72 cm) railway in China, which was still in use until the early 1990s, but the speed was slower.
Cars have great advantages in Yunnan transportation.
It looks really strange, which can be said to be the strangest of the eighteen eccentrics.
17. Stones are born in the sky: In Yunnan, strange peaks and different stones rise high above the mountains and can be seen everywhere.
Flowers bloom in four seasons: Yunnan's three-dimensional climate and abundant sunshine in four seasons make Yunnan bloom in four seasons, and it is known as the "plant kingdom".
Version 3: eighteen eccentrics in Yunnan:
1, Dongjing Ancient Music Competition Teana
Everyone likes to listen to the sounds of nature.
In Lijiang, Jianshui and other places in Yunnan, there is a kind of Dongjing music that has been passed down to this day. Its ancient musical instruments, ancient music scores and ancient players are all talked about by people.
According to legend, the music of Dong Jing has been around since the Tang and Song Dynasties, and it has been sung by Confucian classics and passed down to this day.
Time goes by, which is different from classical music and ritual music in the past. Now it has been integrated into the local national culture, but it still sounds fascinating.
2, building a steam boiler fairy love
Everyone has seen wok, wok and soup pot, but you may not have seen Jianshui steamer with a hole in the middle.
Can the boiler with a hole in the middle still work? Just go to Jianshui County and have a look.
The steam boiler is made of fine clay, and the mouth with a hole in the middle rises like a small chimney, which is higher than the edge of the boiler, so that food will not leak out of the boiler.
The famous Jianshui Steamed Chicken is to put the chicken in this pot, add well water and seasoning, then put the steamer on a round pot filled with water, plug the gap between the two pots with cotton paper and steam it with high fire.
Steamed chicken tastes delicious, the soup is clear, fragrant and delicious.
Jade is worn by everyone.
In mangshi, Ruili, Yingjiang and other places in Dehong Prefecture, jade and jadeite are sold all over the street.
Everyone knows three-point jade, and everyone wears three-point jade.
If you don't wear it, there are a few pieces of jade at home.
Jade ornaments ranging from several hundred yuan to several million yuan are dizzying.
Walking in the street, you will suddenly see the jade worn by passers-by on their hands or necks, which is worth a house and makes people feel uneasy.
Jade came out of Dehong only because it is adjacent to Myanmar, the only jade producing area on the earth.
4, barefoot fire fighting is really very capable.
Fire can burn people, especially ordinary people.
You will be surprised when you see someone walking barefoot on red coal.
This is a skill that some Yi and Lahu people who advocate fire have practiced for many years.
Since ancient times, these peoples who have formed an indissoluble bond with fire have lived and multiplied with fire. Every national festival, they can still see the wonderful scene of walking barefoot on the fire.
5, Daoshan as a ladder race
Climb barefoot on the sharp knife ladder.
It will make you break out in a cold sweat.
Every year, the eighth day of the second lunar month is the "Knife and Pole Festival" of the Lisu people in Yunnan.
Dozens of steel knives that can break hair lightly are tied to two big bamboo sticks as a ladder and stand high in the middle of the square. Brave Lisu girls and boys, barefoot, stepping on steel knives, are very thrilling.
6. Yijiazhai in the solar calendar
Have you ever seen a calendar with only 10 months in a year? It is the October solar calendar of the Yi people, an ancient calendar created by the ancestors of the Yi people, with a history of more than 10,000 years. It is a calendar widely used by the Yi, Bai, Hani and other ethnic groups in Yunnan.
It uses 12 animal cycle dates, one animal cycle is 12 days, three cycles are one month and 30 cycles are one year.
That is, every year 10 month, 36 days per month ***360 days, and the remaining 5 days are used for Chinese New Year.
1989, an ancient solar calendar of1August was discovered in Wuding County, Chuxiong Prefecture. For example, the Mayan solar calendar of the Indian tribe1August, a year is1August, a month is 20 days, ***360 days, and the remaining five days are called "taboo days" by the Maya.
7. Long banquet, street shop.
Have you ever seen dozens of tables of banquets in a hall? Have you ever seen a table of banquets arranged 4 kilometers long? The longest banquet in the world is the "Long Street Banquet" in Honghe Prefecture, Yunnan Province, which is the traditional custom of the "Anmatu" Festival in June of Hani 10.
Every year around 65438 +00 of the lunar calendar, villagers will put one or two tables on the street.
The tables were connected into one piece, stretching for more than a thousand meters, and dozens of dishes were eaten in the sea for three days.
This is a kind of harmony, a kind of culture and a kind of amorous feelings.
8. What should be the snacks in folk songs?
You don't have to have anything to drink, you can use folk songs instead.
In Jianshui, a famous literary state, you can often see several people sitting around drinking, but they don't have any snacks.
Next to a person singing a folk song minor, several people listened and sang, singing and drinking, very happy.
Now you can often see this scene when you go to build the Watergate Chaoyang Tower, which is older than the Forbidden City. Many people also have this habit.
9, Yanziwowo Emperor loves
One of the most spectacular caves in Asia, Jianshui Swallow Cave, is rich in bird's nest.
Local farmers often climb the ceiling of caves more than 50 meters high and 450 meters long with their bare hands to collect bird's nest.
This kind of thing made of swallow saliva has high nutritional value and is difficult to collect. It was regarded as a tribute in ancient times.
10, boiled tofu with corn for sale.
There are many tofu in the world, and Jianshui is the most interesting.
Strange is delicious, strange is selling pictures.
The matchbox is half as big as Jianshui, boiled tofu, and sold only when it stinks.
Put it on the fire and bake it repeatedly, and it will mature into a round "small table tennis".
The smell of baked tofu can be smelled every few blocks away.

There are seven colored embroidered circular cloth boards nailed below, representing the Big Dipper, and a circle of round headdress made of pure silver on the head, symbolizing the moon, commonly known as "Dai Yue Dai Xing".
It means that Naxi women go out early and return late, and they are hardworking.
Tropic of Cancer Shuang Bao Village 13
There is a place where twins abound. It is said that drinking well water from the twin wells here will give birth to twins. Isn't that weird?
What's even more amazing is that the Tropic of Cancer just passes through here, adding a lot of reverie.
The birth rate of twins here is much higher than that in other places.
The local * * * opened the "International Twin Festival", organized local, invited foreign and international twins to attend this party, from zero to eighty or ninety years old, which was an eye-opener, dazzling and confusing. This is Mojiang County, Yunnan Province.
14, walk five blocks in three steps.
Walk five blocks in three steps? The streets and lanes of Jianshui ancient city are densely covered, and the bluestone alleys are faint, criss-crossing and extending in all directions.

15, one hundred houses are in
A family can live in 100 house. In fact, there are more than one hundred.

16. Sprinkle water on leaves to show love.
People in the city treat each other to dinner and give gifts on holidays, and we splash water on each other on holidays here, which is very frugal and environmentally friendly.
This is a thousand-year-old traditional festival of Dai and De 'ang nationalities in Dehong, Xishuangbanna and Honghe, Yunnan.
It is held around mid-April every year.
The earliest custom is to dip branches in water and sprinkle them gently on your shoulders to show your blessings and greetings. This custom can still be seen in some remote villages.
Now, due to the integration of external factors, the way of splashing water has changed. Instead of using branches, small pots are replaced by large pots, which can make you "wet" in one second.

Some say it is for beauty, some say it is to prevent foreign chiefs from looting and self-destruction, and some say it is to exorcise evil spirits and avoid disasters, which is considered as the standard of adults or clans.
Extended data:
Due to its unique geographical features, special climate, colorful ethnic customs and peculiar customs, Yunnan has produced many strange phenomena different from other places.
As tourists and passers-by from afar left short footprints in this magical land, the anecdotes they heard and witnessed gradually spread, and they were often labeled as' strange', which led to the spread of "18 eccentrics in Yunnan", "28 eccentrics in Yunnan" and "81 eccentrics in Yunnan".
The so-called "eighteen eccentrics in Yunnan" are some unique and even peculiar phenomena or lifestyles that describe Yunnan's unique geographical location and folk customs.
There are many versions of the eighteen eccentrics in Yunnan, some phenomena have gradually disappeared, some still exist, and some terms are exaggerated.
