There are many versions of the eighteen eccentrics in Yunnan, some phenomena have gradually disappeared, some still exist, and some terms are exaggerated. With the development of society, remarkable achievements have been made in Yunnan's economic construction, and the eighteen eccentrics in Yunnan are also different from the original eighteen eccentrics in new Yunnan.

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)".

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 caves in the peaks and valleys, trains run around the mountains, sometimes not as fast as ox carts, and the speed is about 30 to 40 kilometers per hour. There is only one "inch track" (72 cm) railway in Yunnan.

Until the early 1990s, it was still in use, but in contrast, it 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.
