Recommendations
In this post I call out some of the great entries from the past week (you can still vote on these). They all stand out to me and really capture the spirit and the vision of the #culturevulture tag. This is just a small selection but for more you can check out the #culturevulture tag.
Festivals
Festivals are great to experience when you travel because they usually showcase the best local speciality foods, music, art as well as being great fun and a time for holidays.
This time of the year is popular with festivals. We just celebrated the Chinese New Year but there are also many other seasonal festivals happening all over the world.
@floatinglin on a visit to London gives her perspective on how the Chinese New Year is celebrated there
Customs & Traditions
Traditions passed down from generation to generation may have a symbolic meaning or cultural significance; clothes, dress, food, holidays, family gatherings, pass-times. Traditions and customs are bound tightly to our cultural identity and may not always be the easiest for outsiders to grasp.
@zamzamiali writes this week about Delman a traditional Horse-Drawn Carriage in Indonesia
@masniaty writes about Tour Activities for Students that aim to preserve cultural heritage
This article by @elmubareki on the trade in Toumbstones from Aceh to the Islamic World was very interesting.
@coinfarmer gave a very detailed account of a Javanese Wedding Ceremony
Food
In some respects nothing expresses a culture more than its food. The climate, culture, religion, the family structure and even way of life are all represented. When we travel or live overseas nothing brings you home like the taste or aroma of a dish from your childhood.
This week @rt395 writes about rest stops in Japan
Art
"#culturevulture" considers art as a physical expression of creativity. It takes many forms from the visual to performance arts. Art can change the temperature of a room, it inspires, it heals unites and can divide people. Art often provides a focal point to a celebration. Like food, art is a rich expression of our culture.

#Culture is something that will affect the level of knowledge, and includes the system of ideas or ideas contained in the human mind, so that in everyday life, the culture is abstract.
So let's preserve the culture that is the heritage of our ancestors ...
#Culturevulture is very helpful in introducing the cultural heritage of the ancestors that their grandchildren have forgotten.
by sharing various knowledge, arts, culinary, and custom area I think is very inspired, sometimes by reading a useful post insight will be increasing, thank you for sharing knowledge.
Thanks @eroche for you support and publication.
Thank you very much @eroche for choosing my article , https://steemit.com/esteem/@masniaty/jingki-yang-mulai-hilang-2ab1e57f8f851. I hope to learn a lot and get to know about culturevulture from @eroche. As a teacher I will try to introduce the culture and tradition to the students so that they will not forget the culture and traditions of their nation. I hope through taq culturevulture we can share information about the culture and traditions from various corners of the country. Thanks @eroche who is very concerned with culture. A great nation that never forgets its culture.
