Tibet in Five Colors
The Tibetans may well be the earliest artists of the earth, adorning the barren snowlands with five-colored prayer flags. This color palette, unique to the plateau, symbolizes the five primordial elements of nature: Blue sky, white clouds, red flame, green rivers, yellow earth.

The flags bear sacred scriptures, Tibetans believe that with every flutter in the wind. Blessing-words, through the wind’s sacred recitation, drift over the grasslands, mountains, and rivers, carrying prayers for peace through heaven and earth, bestowing them upon all beings.
In Tibet, these five colors symbolize the harmony between humans and nature, the self and all existence.
