New Year tree of Tatarstan: Tulips and the ringing of the ancient chulpa
The main emphasis in the ornamentation of the fir tree is placed on the tulip, which has become a symbol, a permanent visual code of Tatarstan. It appears on the coat of arms of the Republic, on the emblem of the Ak Bars hockey club, in the symbolism of the Kazan Universiade, in architectural compositions and on the logos of dozens of companies.
Chulpa, an ancient braid ornament, also occupies a prominent place in the decoration of the fir tree. In the past centuries, women wove such pendants into their hair with a special string. When walking, the chulpas, touching each other, emitted a pleasant ringing sound.
The designers of the New Year tree adhered to the color scheme of the coat of arms of the Republic — white, green and red prevail in the decor.
