Mandarin Ducks (鸳鸯 Yuan Yang in chinese) symbolises love and passion between partners in Chinese culture and Feng Shui. They are always seen pairs, habituating in couples, and they do not seek a new partner when the other passes. Therefore, in Feng Shui, the species of Mandarin Ducks symbolises undying devotion, adoration, loyalty and everlasting romance.
