Rainbow. Jewish Autonomous Region

At the heart of the region's floral exposition is the flag of the Jewish Autonomous Region with a seven-color rainbow. It has many symbolic meanings for the people of the region. In ancient Jewish writings, it was said: if you see a bright, colorful rainbow, it means you remember the meaning of ancient legends and that they give hope for a beautiful and happy future. And if you reach the end of the rainbow, you will surely find a pot of happiness. These legends have given people hope for many centuries. Ninety years ago, for the first time in the world, the Jewish people were allocated land for permanent residence.

A photo zone is arranged at the exposition. In honor of the Year of Family announced by the President, a silhouette model of a friendly family, for which the region is famous, is displayed. Each color of the flag is planted with a different plant (begonia, marigold, ninebark, kochia, petunia, surfinia).

On the flag the white background uniting all colors — as a sign of friendship of the peoples of the Jewish region — is represented by white marble (brucite), which is mined on the territory of the region and is the basis of the world stock of magnesium fertilizers.

For popularization and recognizability, a polygonal figure of a tiger is presented in the exposition - this animal is depicted on the coat of arms of the Jewish Autonomous Region. The population of tigers in the EAR is larger than in other regions of the Far East.
