Lingnan culture is an integral part of splendid Chinese culture. Excavated objects from Lingnan ancient sites indicated that Lingnan culture is native culture. With agriculture and marine expedition at its core, Lingnan culture has constantly drawn strength from Central Plains culture and foreign culture. As a result, Lingnan culture presents such characteristics as pragmatism, openness, innovation and accommodation.
According to geographical locations, Lingnan culture can be divided into Guangdong culture, Guangxi culture and Hainan culture. As the centerpiece of Lingnan culture, Guangdong culture consists of Cantonese, Chaoshan and Hakka cultures.
As the center of Cantonese culture, Guangzhou has a 4000-year civilization that can trace its roots to the Neolithic period. As a result of the intermingling of ethnic minority cultures, Han culture and foreign cultures, Cantonese culture is famous for its diversity and vitality.
As indicated by archaeological relics and historic sites, humanism, pragmatism, enterprise and innovation are major elements of Cantonese culture. These cultural elements often find their expression in architecture, customs, gardening, business, religion and other forms of art. The rich connotations, diversity and uniqueness of Cantonese culture are reflected in languages, music, operas, calligraphy, painting, poems, architecture, bonsai, handicraft, folk customs and cuisines.

● Artists Association of Guangdong
Enning Lu is called "the Street of Cantonese Opera", because a legendary building sits here, which is extremely familiar and appealing to many overseas Chinese.
As one of the local operas in Guangdong, Cantonese Opera (sung in Cantonese) is very popular among Cantonese-speaking people and overseas Chinese. The opera enjoys a good reputation of being "Southern Red Bean". In 2009, Cantonese Opera was listed as a world intangible cultural heritage.
Originally established in Foshan, the Artists Association of Guangdong was a gathering place for Cantonese Opera artists. However, the building in Foshan was razed to the ground by the Qing government in 1854. In 1889, Cantonese Opera artists purchased a plot of land in Huangsha to construct a mansion with a holding capacity of some one thousand people. Thus was born the new Artists Association of Guangdong. Since then, Huangsha, the originally little known region in Guangzhou had seen its reputation rise dramatically. As time passed, Huangsha became a prosperous and bustling scenic spot in Guangzhou.
In 1937, under the intense bombardment by Japanese fighter jets, the mansion in Huangsha was destroyed. In 1946, the second year after the anti-Japanese war ended, the Artists Association of Guangdong was rebuilt in Enning Lu. Though not as magnificent as its predecessor in Huangsha, the new association is still a magnet for thousands of Cantonese Opera artists. Opera posters are put on its walls, together with photos of Cantonese Opera stars from Guangdong and Hong Kong.
The Artists Association of Guangdong has branches in many countries of the world. It is said that where there are Cantonese-speaking Chinese, there are branches of the association. With its profound historical and cultural implications, the Artists Association of Guangdong enjoys high stature as the birthplace of Cantonese Opera.

● Qilou Street
Qilou architectural complexes originated from ancient Greece some two thousand years ago. Later on, this architectural style spread to the entire Europe and other parts of the world.
Qilou buildings are corridors with wooden ceilings, usually built in commercial districts. Ranging from several hundred to two thousand meters in length, Qilou buildings provide shelter to passengers from the scorching sun and rainfalls. As a result, it is most fitting to construct Qilou buildings in South China, a region with a humid monsoon climate. Qilou architecture represents a blend of culture from the East and the West. Most qilou buildings provide both residential and business space. It is said that the weather in Guangzhou is as unpredictable and changeable as emotional babies. It was because Qilou buildings provide shelter from rainy and even stormy weather that these inviting and customer-friendly buildings spread throughout the city. Gradually, such Qilou buildings became part of the city landscape. Diverse in styles and well-preserved, Qilou buildings in Guangzhou enjoy a high reputation than those in other Cantonese-speaking cities.
Since 1840, the year of the Opium War, architecture in Guangzhou has undergone three periods, namely, the importation of Western architectural styles, the revival of traditional architecture and the importation of modern architecture. As a result of a blend of architectural culture from the East and the West, Western architecture has been adapted into the following styles:
• Religious buildings represented by Catholic Sacred Heart Church • Public buildings such as Guangzhou Postal Authority Building, Guangdong Customs House, the City Hall, Provincial Department of Finance Building and Provincial Federation of Trade Unions Building. • Residential buildings such as Xiguan Ancient House, Bamboo House, Dongshan Garden House and Western-Style buildings. • Commemorative buildings represented by Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and Seafarers Pavilion. • Commercial Qilou buildings such as Aiqun Building, South Building, City Bank Building, Provincial Bank Building and New Asia Hotel.
Qilou buildings are concentrated on Shangxiajiu Lu, Zhongshan Lu, Jiefang Lu, Renmin Nanlu, Yide Lu and other commercial streets. Most eye-catching are those in Xihao Kou, including New Asia Hotel, Nanfang Building and Aiqun Building. Since the 1960s, Qilou buildings have been rarely built in new commercial districts. Top
● Shixiang Garden
As the birthplace of Lingnan School of Painting, the famous Shixiang Garden has cultivated Gao Jianfu, Chen Shuren and other first-rate painters. The Lingnan Painting School, founded by Gao Jianfu and Chen Shuren, is one of the most brilliant branches of Lingnan culture.
Located in Huaide Dajie of Jiangnan Dadao Zhong in Haizhu District, Shixiang Garden was first established in 1856. It was a residential garden where Ju Lian and Ju Cao, two famous flower-bird painters of the Qing Dynasty taught their students. It is said that the two painters grew ten kinds of fragrant flowers in the garden: yellow jasmine, winter daphne, evening primrose, cytisine, jasmine, lilium longiflorum, Zhulan tree, Chloranthus elatior, white orchid and banana shrub. Thus, the garden is called "Shixiang Garden" ("xiang" in Cantonese means "fragrant"). Shixiang Garden has brought up a host of famous painters, most notably Gao Jiaofu and Chen Shuren, who were apprenticed by Ju Lian and Ju Cao.
Lingnan School of Painting first emerged in the late 19th century, a product of foreign cultural importation to China. Painters of this school observe the principle of "combining Chinese style with Western style", believing that painting skills from the West should be applied to traditional Chinese paintings. Such fresh painting philosophies injected life into traditional Chinese paintings whose popularity among the public had gradually faded at the time. The school, at its birth, has been revolutionary in nature. As an important art school in China, it is regarded as one of the "Three Treasures of Lingnan"(the other two being Cantonese Opera and Cantonese Music).

● Xiguan Ancient Houses
As Hutong in Beijing and Linong (small lanes and alleys) in Shanghai, Xiguan houses are very representational of local traditional architectural styles.
Built by wealthy businessmen in Xiguanjiao (referring to Liwan District), the west side of Guangzhou in the late Qing Dynasty, Xiguan houses are residential houses of typical Lingnan style.
Xiguan was already the commercial center of Guangzhou in the Ming Dynasty, while Shibapu (literally meaning eighteen blocks) also emerged in the Ming Dynasty. Xiguanjiao took shape during the reign of Tongci and Guangxu emperors in the Qing Dynasty, covering Wenchang Bridge, Daguan Bridge, Pantang and Changhua Garden. Xiguan houses were originally concentrated in Baohua Lu, Duobao Lu, Baoyuan Lu and Fengyuan Lu. Later on, new houses were built by wealthy businessmen and bureaucrats in other areas of Xiguan.
Xiguan houses present the following three characteristics: first, the facade of a Xiguan house is generally built with grey bricks; second, the main wooden door is accompanied by a Tanglong (horizontal wooden bars); third, "Manchurian windows" are used, which feature colorful patterns and paintings.
With symmetrical structures, clean windows and delicate gardening designs, Xiguan houses present an elegant nature. Originally, Xiguan was sparsely populated with picturesque outskirts scenery. However, as "Sup Sam Hung" (a cluster of foreign trade associations) emerged, many businessmen moved to Xiguan to enjoy the high-quality life. As a result, Xiguan houses were built with intensive care. Ever since, the population of Xiguan had skyrocketed.
Small Barge Studio: First established in Lizhiwan in 1902, the studio is a garden-style Xiguan house. Buildings were built on the periphery, surrounding a garden in the center. Overgrown with lush trees and flowers, the garden-style studio is a representative Lingnan building.
It may take one or two days to finish a trip to major Xiguan houses, since they are scattered and hidden in winding lanes. You are highly advised to take Metro Line 1 to Changshou Lu. Walk southward and you will see the fifteenth block and sixteenth block (parts of the Eighteen Blocks). If you walk towards the northeast, you will come to Xiguan house complexes in Yaohua Dajie. Walk northwest, and you will reach the Xiguan house complexes in Dabao Lu and Fengyuan Lu. A range of old houses along Duobao Lu are also worth visiting. Having completed a tour around major Xiguan house complexes and having had a taste of local delicacies, you can visit the tenth block and Shangxiajiu where century-old stores and time-honored restaurants are scattered. Have a delicious meal in one of those traditional restaurants.
Except Xiguan Folk House, you can enter all Xiguan houses free of charge. However, get prepared to be denied entry by the owners. You are advised to take a stroll around granite lanes, where you can see local citizens play chess, cards and mahjong. This is a scene that cannot be found in other parts of Guangzhou.
Xiguan Folk House: Built inside Liwan Museum, Xiguan Folk House constitutes a very important house in Xiguan. It was originally the residence of Chen Lianzhong, a English businessman working in the HSBC during the Republic of China. The house is a three-storey Western-style villa. Treasure trees are planted inside the house, while rock works, pavilions and ponds give the house a Chinese cultural touch. Cantonese-style furniture is exhibited in the house, while exhibitions of Xiguan folk customs, wedding ceremonies and seasonal customs are frequently staged. A visit to the house will certainly help you get a holistic picture of Xiguan lifestyle and culture.
Last but not least, do not forget to take with you a map of Guangzhou streets in case of getting lost in the labyrinth-like lanes. Top

More than 200 antiquities of historical value are on display at the Capital Museum to celebrate Lingnan culture, of which Guangdong province's capital Guangzhou has long been the center. The exhibition narrates in three sections the birth of civilization along the Pearl River, Cantonese people's contribution to the Maritime Silk Road and the role of Guangzhou in China's democratic revolution of the early 20th century. The relics come from Guangzhou's 10 museums and cultural institutes, and many are national treasures, including an incredible jade burial suit. The suit is 1.73 meters long and consists of 2,291 pieces of jade. It was excavated from the mausoleum of the Nanyue King of the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 24), which has been reconstructed into a museum.

Xiguan is the window of Xixue Dongjian (Chinese: 西學東漸; pinyin: Xīxué Dōngjiān; Jyutping: Sai1 Hok9 Dung1 Zim1; literally: "Western Learning or Dissemination of Western Learning to the Orient or Western Learning Spreading to the East or Western Learning Introduced Into China") in contemporary South China. It is also one of the cradlelands of Lingnan culture. Xiguan culture is one of the substances of Guangfu (Chinese: 廣府; pinyin: Guǎngfǔ; Jyutping: Gwong2 Fu2; literally: "Cantonese") culture.
- Bamboo tube housesEdit
- Definition von Lingnan:
Zhu Tong (Bamboo Tube) Houses are traditional houses that are rich in characteristics of Lingnan (a geographical area referring to lands in the south of China's "Five Ranges" which are Tayu, Qitian, Dupang, Mengzhu, Yuecheng. This region covers the Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan and Jiangxi provinces of modern China and northern Vietnam). They are relatively cruder and narrower than a Xi guan (West Customs) house. The width of this type of house is short and the depth is long; the W/L ratio varies from 1:4 to 1:8. The rooms are arranged from front to back with skylights (天井) as intervals thus the shape of a bamboo tube. Ventilation, drainage and traffic are mainly dependent on the skylights and the roadway, i.e. the longer the house is, the more skylights are required. They appear to be one story, but since they can reach a height of 4.5 meters, they always set floor levels and stairways within the house. Stones are used to construct the base of a wall and bricks are used as the body of each wall. They always have a gable, a wooden frame and a tiled roof.
Lingnan Art Museum in Dongguan
[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]- Dongguan ist Osttor, und auch ein District in Guangzhou.

Wie reagieren andere Kulturinstitutionen vor Ort? Die wenigen die es gibt, zeigen sich sehr offen. Als ich im Dezember in Dongguan ankam, wurde ich gleich am nächsten Tag gebeten, an einem Podium teilzunehmen, bei dem über Kultur im öffentlichen Raum diskutiert wurde. Das war für mich sehr spannend. Die Veranstaltung fand im Lingnan Art Museum statt, das jetzt auch der Presenting Partner meines Projektes ist. Berührungsängste zwischen privaten Kulturinitiativen und staatlichen Institutionen kennt man dort offenbar gar nicht. Der Umgang mit Kultur ist in China auch viel unverkrampfter als bei uns. Da finden Kunstausstellungen auch auf hohem Niveau, sogar in Einkaufszentren, statt.
Foshan um Lingnan-Kultur zu sehen
[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]Lingnan ist auch hier geographisch bedingt. http://www.china-guide.de/umgebung-von-guangzhou.html
Dieser Text wurde von China-Reisefuehrer.com kopiert:
Foshan Die Stadt Foshan liegt südwestlich von Guangzhou. Sie gilt als Ursprungsort der Guangdong-Oper. Zugleich ist sie auch für Kampfkunst, Kunst, Gastronomie und Porzellan bekannt. Foshan ist eine kulturhistorische Stadt auf Staatsebene, in der man die Kultur und die Geschichte des Lingnan-Gebietes am besten kennen lernt. Der Zumiao (Ahnentempel) steht unter staatlichem Kulturgüterschutz. Der Liangyuan-Garten zählt zu den vier bekannten Gärten in Lingnan. Kunstgewerbliche Produkte aus Foshan sind auch im Ausland weithin bekannt. Besonders gepriesen werden Scherenschnitte aus Foshan. Die Tonwaren aus Shiwan sind überaus formschön. Auch die Holzschnitt-Neujahrsbilder und die Bindetechnik für die Löwenköpfe beim Löwentanz sind in weiten Teilen Chinas populär.

Die Folien-Scherenschnitte von Foshan
[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]http://www.reisennachchina.com/handwerke/volkskunst-scherenschnitte.html
Foshan sool das Ursprungsgebiet der Lingnan Kulur sein.
Foshan liegt im mittleren Süden der Provinz Guangdong im Hinterland des Perlfluß-Deltas. Seit alters her wird dort Handel getrieben. Foshan selbst ist berühmt für seine Neujahrsbilder und seine Scherenschnitte. Es ist heute eine der vier bekanntesten Städte des Kunsthandwerks und wurde als erste in die chinesische Liste des Kulturerbes aufgenommen. Die Scherenschnitte von Foshan, die in der Song-Dynastie (960-1279) entstanden, erreichten während der Ming-und der Qing-Dynastie ihre Blütezeit. Schon damals waren die Scherenschnitte auch beliebte Exportgüter in die Länder Südostasiens. Die Foshan-Scherenschnitte werden sowohl mit Scheren als auch mit Messern angefertigt und sind sehr unterschiedlich. Die Scherenschnitte, die aus Bronzefolien hergestellt werden, sind dabei die typischsten. Diese für Foshan typischen Scherenschnitte werden statt aus Papier aus am Ort produzierter Metallfolie hergestellt. Die Folien aus hauchdünn ausgewalzter Bronze sind noch dünner als Papier. In diese Folie werden zunächst die Umrisse der Szene eingeschnitten, und anschließend werden Rundungen und feinere Details mit einem speziellen kleinen Meißel mit einer runden Spitze herausgearbeitet. Die auf diese Weise entstehenden Muster und Figuren werden nun mit farbigen Papieren versehen, so daß prachtvolle Bilder entstehen. Besonders in Südchina schätzt man diese goldglänzenden, farbenfrohen Bilder sehr, und man kann sie oft in Wohnungen sehen, oder auch auf Feuerwerkskörpern. Der erwähnte Meißel mit der kugelförmigen Spitze ist speziell für diese Art Arbeit entwickelt worden. Er kann ein kugeliges Ende aufweisen, oder auch mehrere, die Kugeln können unterschiedlich angeordnet sein. Man legt die Metallfolie auf eine Holzplatte und schnitzelt mit dem Meißel Ornamente oder Linien aus. Foshan in Südchina hat ein warmes, feuchtes Klima. Papierschmuck an den Fenstern würde nicht lange halten. Daher verwendet man die lokalen Scherenschnitte normalerweise bei Hochzeits-, Trauer-und Geburtstagsfeiern oder bei Opferzeremonien. Oder man findet sie auch an Artikeln des täglichen Gebrauchs oder an Spielsachen, wo sie zur Dekoration dienen.
Ahnentempel der Familie Chen
[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]http://www.chinareise.com/china-reiseziele/guangzhou.php Soll Beispiel für Lingnan Kultur sein. Fehlt aber Hinweis.
Sehenswürdigkeiten in Guangzhou: Der Ahnentempel der Familie Chen
Der Ahnnentempel der Familie Chen befindet sich auf der Straße Zhongshan Qilu und wurde mit Hilfe von Spenden der Angehörigen des Chen-Clans aus 72 Kreisen der Provinz Guangdong erbaut. Die Bauarbeiten wurden im Jahre 1890 begonnen. Der Tempel mit neun Hallen und sechs Höfen nimmt eine Gesamtfläche von 10.000 qm ein. Er ist ein typisches traditionelles Bauwerk der südchinesischen Provinz Guangzhou, das sich durch seine volkstümliche Gestaltungskunst auszeichnet. Heute beherbergt es das Museum für Volkskunsthandwerk der Provinz Guangdong und steht unter dem staatlichen denkmalschutz.
