Peking University Historical Phoenix
The phoenix bird is the symbol of the ancient god bird in China. Among them, Phoenix is a male bird and Phoenix is a female bird, which is called Phoenix for short. Wherever the Phoenix goes, the auspicious spirit is increasing day by day, which represents the political integrity, harmony and developed cause of this region. For example, as we all know, Qishan in Feng Ming is a magical omen and a symbol of good luck.

In today's Guanzhong area of Shaanxi, especially Qishan, Fengxiang and Fengxian ... the legend about the phoenix has been passed down to this day. Because the dragon is the totem of the whole Chinese nation, the image of clam shell dragon was unearthed in the ancient tomb of Puyang, Henan Province 6600 years ago. As a magical beast, dragon is worshipped by people like phoenix.

With the development of society, these two images representing the national spirit gradually became the exclusive of emperors and queens. The dragon represents the emperor and has supreme power; Phoenix represents the queen, the mother of the world's musical instruments.
