The Symbol of the PandaPanda is one of the most recognized animals from China. Regarded as a symbol for friendship and peace, these pandas have attracted many people around the world by their beautiful coats and playful nature. Panda has a special place in Chinese culture, its many characteristics and qualities of the animal are qualities revered by Chinese society as a whole. During the Xizhou Dynasty, panda was given a special name ‘Zouya’ by people in Pingwu. The Zouya was thought to be a gentle animal that never hurt a man or beast. Thus, panda became a symbol of peace. At that time, when an army raised a flag with an image of the Zouya during the battle, they would stop the fighting immediately and a temporary peace would ensue. Today, the panda is still a symbol of peace and China has given its many pandas to many nations such as Soviet Union, Japan, North Korea, United States, Britain, France, Federal Germany, Spain and Mexico as a gesture of peaceful relations. In certain places, panda is seen as a symbol of good luck.
The giant panda was thought to be a physical manifestation of the Yin-Yang as its body is both white and black, the two colors standing in stark contrast to one another on the animal’s pelt. The panda’s placid nature is a demonstration of how the Yin and Yang, when perfectly balanced, contribute to peace and harmony. While dragon has historically served as China’s national emblem, the giant panda has served as an emblem for the country too in recent decades. Its image appears on a large number of modern Chinese commemorative gold, silver and platinum coins.
