China would not be how it is today if it wasn't for the history that it left behind. Ancient China was a very strong, intelligent, and large society and it has shaped modern China in so many ways possible. The Chinese culture and beliefs has been influenced by ancestors that lived long ago. The Dynasties have influenced the religion that one follows and the styles of carving in the Longmen Grottoes has influenced art styles in modern China. Kites have been the main feature in many festivals such as Chinese New Year, Laba Festival and Mid-autumn Festival. All of China's inventions have played massive roles in China's culture. With gunpowder being a main ingredient in fireworks, China was bound to discover the bursting flames before anyone else, as they had already discovered gunpowder. Fireworks are a huge feature in all of modern China's festivals. The culture of Ancient China has not just shaped the culture of China today, it has shaped cultures from all over the world with it's inventions, religions, and traditions.
