Religious culture: Religious culture refers to the religious beliefs and folk beliefs of Minnan people. Quanzhou is the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road, and it was the "largest port in the East" in the Song and Yuan Dynasties. Overseas transportation and foreign trade once flourished, and multi-cultures blended in Quanzhou, forming a unique religious belief culture. In addition to Taoism (Yuanming Temple and Laojunyan), Buddhism (Kaiyuan Temple) and Islam (Jing Qing Temple and the Holy Tomb of Lingshan), Minnan people also believe in Hinduism, Christianity (Quannantang) and Manichaeism (Cao An). The most striking feature is that the people believe in the gods shared by the Chinese nation in ancient times (such as the land Lord). Clan culture is also an important part of Minnan culture. The clan culture in southern Fujian is very developed, which is marked by attaching importance to clan affection, compiling genealogy and ancestral temple architecture.
