The dragon, a heavenly beast, is sacred and powerful. It is a symbol of the king.
As early as 7000 years ago men from stone age started to worship the totem of dragon. Stories of dragon have gone through the entire Chinese history and played an important role in Chinese culture. In the ancient times dragon images were used exclusively by the emperors only. Ordinary civilians were disallowed to have dragon images on their clothing and any personal properties.
In the West a dragon may take different appearance, but it can fly and blow out flames. Whether it is an Eastern heavenly dragon or Western giant dragon, it is supreme, going beyond everything.
