China has one of the oldest continuous civilizations in the world – and with it an immensely rich store of legends. These stories are not just the backdrop to history, but have often acted as a moral compass, political inspiration, or symbolic map of social order.
Stories that survived dynasties
Many of these legends have endured for millennia, not because they are simply beautiful or magical – but because they offer answers. Why do eras change? Where do emperors come from? Why is the dragon so important in China? These are all questions that the ancient Chinese answered through stories – and which, in various forms, have been passed down to the present day.
