> Mauritius islands - Two Drops of Ganges in the Indian Ocean
The legend tells that Lord Shiva and his wife Parvati surrounded the
Earth, when they've noticed the beauty of an island and the emerald sea
that encircled it. Shiva, that carried the river Ganges in his head, to
protect the world from the floods, decided to land, having two water
drops drained from his head, and felt into a volcano's crater, forming
a natural lake. The Ganges was enraged, for his water being spilled in
abandoned land, but Shiva answered that habitants of Gange's shores
would one day colonize the island and do an annual pilgrimage to this
lake.

Yellow
It's considered the most expansive
of colours, as well as the one that most attracts the eyes. The
exploration of its use has a great importance in the work of Vincent
van Gogh.
Yellow was the colour-symbol of the China Emperor, and by consequence,
of the Chinese Monarchy. It was also the colour of Louis XIV Court,
the sun king of France.
In many countries, yellow is used to represent taxis. In nature
yellow colour manifests itself in fruits, flowers and also in animals
(in general poisonous, as snakes and toads).
