Symbol heterogeneity

In Europe, the swastika is a Nazi symbol and is banned. After the defeat of fascism in World War II, this symbol was immediately smashed. However, in November 2000, a British reporter photographed a "tree composition" composed of trees from a high altitude in a jungle 110 kilometers away from Berlin. The fascist symbol swastika. It is composed of 48 trees of different species from the surrounding trees, with a length and width of 60 meters, with clear lines and obvious signs.

These 48 trees are larch, surrounded by conifers that are evergreen all year round. There is no difference between them in spring and summer, but every late autumn and early winter, the leaves of the larch gradually turn yellow. A yellow "swastika" symbol was highlighted. According to the investigation, this was specially planted by a rich man from the German countryside when Hitler's activities were rampant. As soon as the photo was published, it immediately aroused people's protests and asked the German government to eradicate it immediately. German law does not allow the public display of the Nazi party symbol on any occasion, so the Nazi symbol composed of trees was quickly eliminated.

However, in Mongolia it is a traditional symbol that has been popular for hundreds of years.
