"Phoenix" is the king of birds in ancient legends in China. In the works of Japanese painter Tombo Kato, it is a performance of dancing the phoenix to the sky. He described the origins of several phoenixes, such as Zhu Bird, Dan Bird, Firebird and Pheasant, and made different paintings to represent "Phoenix".

"Phoenix" means that people's naming of birds symbolizes the world.

Jaco Kato's "Nine Days Phoenix Dance" combines Chinese and Western cultural connotations, because the phoenix in China refers to Zhu bird, Dan bird, firebird and pheasant; Western mythology calls it a flamingo, which has a long tail and is on fire all over. It is also a myth about flamingos. The legend of "phoenix nirvana" is that after death, the whole body of the phoenix will ignite and be reborn in the fire, so the phoenix is an immortal bird.

Egyptian legend: "Phoenix is as beautiful as a goddess and as majestic as Pharaoh. It can be reborn, it can be reborn in the fire, just like the guardian of the underworld.
