Abstract

Traditional sports of ethnic minorities in Western Guangxi boast abundant resources, rich content, various forms and distinctive features. Regional difference is an important factor affecting the development approach in various regions. To exploit the cultural resources of traditional sports of ethnic minorities, geographic location determines the development orientation and position, economic conditions lay foundation, transportation is the necessary condition, and cultural characteristics are the activator to promote cultural resources of traditional sports of ethnic minorities and other regional culture to develop in harmony. Three development modes oriented to competition and cooperation, i.e., Hechi' s Culture Festival of Health Maintenance, Baise' s Revolutionary Sports Circle and Chongzuo' s All-people Fitkeeping in Western Guangxi, can not only expand cultural influence of traditional sports of ethnic minorities, improve their comprehensive competitive power, but also play significant role in the development of characteristic urban culture of these three cities in western Guangxi.
