Peking Opera is also well received by a lot of overseas fans. Another feature of Peking Opera is what is known as Lian Pus, which many foreigners find most fascinating. Different from that kind of masks Westerners wear at masquerades, Peking Opera Lian Pus are colorful patterns painted on the faces of the performers. Lian Pu is symbolic of the character, with different colors denoting different characteristics. For instance, black stands for uprightness, white means treachery or deception, and red often signifies loyalty.

 

    京剧还赢得了很多外国戏迷的青睐。京剧的另一特色是所谓的脸谱。这使许多外国人着迷。京剧脸谱不同于西方人在化妆舞会上戴的面具，是画在演员脸上的图案。京剧脸谱象征人物的性格，不同的颜色代表不同的性格。例如黑色代表刚直，白色代表背叛和狡诈，红色则用来代表忠诚。
