Irrespective of generation or gender, the Chinese are particularly fond of red. This feeling will last forever, given that people's love for what is good, beautiful and joyous is something everlasting.
If you have ever wondered why 'red' colour plays such an important role in Chinese culture, and if you want to learn more about its symbolic, this book will answer your questions. Accompanied by beautiful pictures, chapters explain how red colour has been used at the court, among the people, by both men and women, and how it is used today, on many different fields (architectures, clothes, handicrafts etc.).
