Description

Dragon guards the treasures of the mountain. Dragons are amazing and majestic creatures, which are often portrayed as scaled dinosaurs with wings. They are the main characters of many myths and legends of the countries of Europe and Asia. In Australia and on both continents of America, these are rare guests, and there are almost no references to them. Nevertheless, they found a place beyond the cordon. One need only recall the feathered serpent of Quetzalcoatl, the deity of the ancient Aztecs. In Europe, they were mostly considered evil, feared and deified at the same time. In the East, dragons are considered to be symbols of wisdom and nobility, which seek to help people rather than harm. The image of a dragon has been present in human history since ancient times. The dragon’s head adorned the nose of the Viking dragons, protecting them from the monsters that led to the sea, the temples of the east are abundantly lined with statues of these dinosaurs, and their walls are covered with images of mythical creatures. Nowadays, many famous writers use this ancient image in their works. Good and evil, wise and stupid, patient and aggressive, greedy and generous, dragons differ among themselves as well as people
