Ordos has an ancient traditional folk music culture with unique regional colours. In this characteristic regional folk music culture, the ancient customs of Mongolian people have been well preserved. Especially in the aspect of music, it shows the regional cultural characteristics which are obviously different from other Mongolian regions. Ordos people have preserved the music culture with ceremonial characteristics for a long time, and radiated it to the folk soil, forming the unique Ordos folk music culture nowadays. Ordos music culture represented by court "Gu Ru Ge" is national intangible cultural heritage. Guru song is a long song sung at the beginning of the grand celebration, which is very different from the ordinary long folk songs and can be called the only one in the world. Only through in-depth excavation and exploration can this national treasure be effectively protected and passed on.
