　　Folk Customs Introduction

　　China is a country with a long history, vast territory and a large population. In the long process of development, each ethnic group has formed various customs and habits of their own, covering clothing, food, living and transport; festive occasions, etiquette and offering sacrifices; religious beliefs and folk worship; and also marriage, giving birth and funerals. These customs have lasted for many centuries and become the traditions preserved by each ethnic group; some have gradually evolved into the common customs of the Chinese nation。
