Ethnic architecture is mainly influenced by such factors as climate, environment,folk-customs, culture and history. Such architecture in China reflects the time period, the characferistics of the ethnic group, local and regional conditions as well as beliefs about life, all in combination with the natural environment. The structures are not only places for people to live, but also places for them to hold cultural activities. The architecture reflects the social concepts and aesthetic notions of the ethnic groups and due to its attention to ethic and conformity to rites and music it also expresses the national culture.
The creators of Chinese folk art come from the working class masses of China's rural areas. They are mostly female laborers. A communal art, folk art would engender all of Chinese literature and all later art. Its presence is evident in everyday food, clothing, shelter and transportation; in traditional festivals, ceremonies and rituals, and in beliefs and taboos. As a living example of cultural heritage, it shows the continuity of Chinese culture from primitive society to present, a culture that bears distinct national and geographical characteristics. With this heritage, Chinese culture boasts the longest history and the richest historical sources, and of all cultures, considers itself the most widely shared and the most geographically distinct. Its cultural implication and art form accumulate a historical culture of 7,000-8,000 years dating back to primitive society.
