Why was the color yellow forbidden in Imperial China?
It symbolized power, used only by the emperor and his family.

The color yellow was forbidden in imperial China. This measure was taken because the color of the Sun could only be used exclusively by the Emperor and his family, as it symbolized absolute power and the connection to Heaven.

Of course, colors have important meanings based on cultures and traditions, and the color gold in Asian culture represents Light, courage, power, strength, respect, and above all, Empire.

During the Qing Dynasty (1616–1912), this rule was quite strict and only the sovereign could wear the Dragon color, especially the brilliant and bright one, made of golden silk and decorated with artisanal embroidery.

This rule did not only apply to clothing, but also to buildings, where tiles were also the prerogative of royal palaces only, as in the case of the Forbidden City in Beijing. The same rule also applied to writing, while the antiques of the imperial family were only cast on silk fabrics of this color.

These harsh rules remained in force for centuries, until the empire's dissolution in the last century.
