According to Vietnamese belief, the 4 sacred
animals including the dragon, unicorn, tortoise
and phoenix symbolize power, intellect, longevity
and nobility.  Probably, for this meaning, these
animals have been seen in many architectural
works. The Vietnamese dragon looks lither and
more flowing than in other Asian countries. The
S-shaped curves are indispensable. A dragon
decorated in pagodas and palaces always has its
head up, wide mouth holding a jade, a flame-like
crest and body flying together in one movement,
creating a close-fitting structure. Cultural
researcher Dang Van Ban told The dragon image
reflects peoples desire to free themselves from
restrictions and limitations. The dragon can fly
in the sky, hide in the clouds, swim, walk and
crawl. The dragon symbolizes human aspiration for
strength and freedom to live a better life.

The Buddhist flag is a flag designed in the late

The Catholic President of South Vietnam Ngo Dinh
Diem, in 1963 invoked a law prohibiting flags
other than that of the nation, to ban the
Buddhist flag from being flown on Vesak, when
Vatican flags habitually had flown at government
events. This led to protests, which were ended
by lethal firing of weapons, starting the
Buddhist crisis
