The Greater Khingan Mountains region, as a relatively independent geographical area, can be considered a cultural region. Within this region, there are multiple ethnic groups including Han, Mongolian, Daur, Evenki, Oroqen, and Manchu. These ethnic cultures interact with the specific environment, forming a cultural region on a macro scale, and on a micro scale, they constitute sub-cultural regions with neighboring cultures. These component cultures, as part of the cultural region, can generate new cultural traits, with shared values and religious beliefs serving as the common foundation for their collective cultural tendencies. As a result, these ethnic groups can coexist harmoniously and intact. As educators, for the educational effectiveness, it is essential for educators to deeply understand the cultural characteristics of the region and subsequently multicultural issues in order to develop effective and appropriate education and cultural policies. This paper employs a literature analysis research method to comprehensively analyze the multicultural characteristics of the Greater Khingan Mountains region. This paper typically emphasizes the recognition and enhancement of multiculturalism in the Greater Khingan Mountains, addressing the crucial dimensions such as the natural environment, cultural diversity, the phenomenon of multicultural fusion among ethnic groups, and residents’ religious beliefs. Ultimately, it proposes a systematic policy for multicultural education, multicultural instruction, and educational improvement policies as well as measurement.
