The first birthmark of Xiangshan seems to be within reach here; this is also the most prosperous specimen of Xiangshan, Daxin.

Culture is the root of a city. Xiangshan culture is the soul of Zhongshan and the spirit of the Shiqi people. It is the foundation for us to create a harmonious society and harmonious community.
How to build a harmonious community? We believe that we must be based on serving the people and benefiting the people, we must adhere to the people-oriented approach, and serve the residents as the starting point and end point of all work in the community. There are mainly the following aspects of work to be done: 1. Pay attention to volunteer services in building harmony role in the community.
Volunteer service promotes the voluntary spirit of "dedication, friendship, mutual assistance and progress". It embodies the mutual care between people, the mutual integration between people and society, and is in line with the Xiangshan culture. The "fraternity, innovation, tolerance and harmony" advocated are consistent with the essential requirements of establishing a socialist harmonious society and harmonious community.
2. Realize residents’ autonomy and promote the construction of harmonious communities.

Resident autonomy can most directly and extensively embody the "humanistic" spirit.
3. Eliminate differences, promote integration, and achieve harmony.
The spirit of compatibility and harmony contained in Xiangshan culture, the coexistence of Chinese and foreign multiple cultures, and the coexistence of cultures from different regions and ethnic groups within the Chinese cultural system provide a historical basis for us to create a harmonious culture today. The resources and practical reference are consistent with the concept and goal of "building a harmonious community" that we advocate today to create a harmonious community.
4. Use Neighbors’ Day as a carrier to build a harmonious community.
The spirit of "fraternity and harmony" of Zhongshan people in the new era shows that modern Zhongshan people long for harmonious interpersonal relationships.
In response to this situation, the "Neighbors' Day" is held with the theme of "Being neighbors with virtue, uniting and helping each other, warming families, and creating civilization", which is conducive to creating harmonious interpersonal relationships in the community. .
5. Create a good environment and strive to build a harmonious community.
Based on the specific conditions of Shiqi District, we have established the overall idea of ??"creating three environments and cultivating three consciousnesses": that is, creating a harmonious and stable social environment, cultivating residents' awareness of participation; Create an orderly democratic environment to cultivate residents’ sense of autonomy; create a civilized and progressive humanistic environment to stimulate residents’ sense of creativity.

The fifth is to do a good job in community services, give full play to the role of volunteers, respect the elderly and care for the young, support the poor and students, rescue the injured, care for the disadvantaged groups and other good people and good deeds can be seen everywhere, showing great fraternity and Inclusiveness is reflected in every aspect: benevolence comes after wealth, culture comes after wealth, and education comes after wealth.
