Red - 1

"Red Hot China Peppers" :)


Lorsque l’on évoque la Chine quelle est la couleur à laquelle l’on pense : le Rouge bien sûr.

C'est dans la Chine ancienne que la couleur rouge s’est imposée comme la couleur primordiale, souvent utilisée pour les célébrations. Cela vient du feu qui, pour les Chinois, n’est pas un symbole négatif de destruction. Un dicton chinois dit même : « rouge, rouge, feu, feu » ce qui signifie que la vie de quelqu'un se développe et prospère comme une flamme rouge.
La couleur rouge est aujourd'hui le symbole de la prospérité et du bonheur.

When we evoke China which is the color of which we think first : Red of course.

It is in former China that the red color stood out as the essential color, often used for celebrations. It comes from the fire which, for the Chinese, is not a negative symbol of destruction. A Chinese saying even says : "red, red, fire, fire" what means that the life of somebody develops and prospers as a red flame.
Today The red color is the symbol of the prosperity and the happiness.

Such an interesting shot - the buildings are of such a strange design and I'm guessing those are red peppers drying. BV
