Since the BaShu region is located in the Sichuan Basin and is surrounded by mountains, which form a relatively closed circuit, its natural conditions are quite favorable. On numerous occasions in history, the area became a refuge for certain individuals as well as a stronghold for some political factions. In the centuries following the incorporation of Ba and Shu into imperial China, waves of different groups of people from all over China as well as its borders came to the BaShu area. It was a place of cultural exchange and integration which formed today’s richly diverse Ba-shu culture.
