It is already difficult to remember exactly when exactly Chinese and Japanese tattoos took root in tattoo art. They fascinate with their form, intrigue with hidden meaning and even magical meaning. Tattoos in the form of hieroglyphs can be attributed to inscriptions. But stylistically, the depiction of Chinese and Japanese characters is very different from the usual depiction of words using standard fonts.

A hieroglyph can be simple enough to execute and understand. Many people choose small inscriptions as a tattoo that have a meaning directly only for their owner. Among the most common words, everyone can choose something that corresponds to his life credo.

There are also more complex paintings made up of several shapes that tell a whole story. Thus, on a small area of ​​the body with the help of a tattoo with a hieroglyph, you can capture a multifaceted and unique plot.

The most common phenomenon in our country is a tattoo in the form of a Chinese and Japanese hieroglyph. However, it must be remembered that there is also a distinction between Vietnamese and Korean.

The paradox is that in most cases the owners of hieroglyphs are not very interested in studying the culture of the East and do not know the language. Why do Chinese and Japanese hieroglyph tattoos attract ordinary people? Probably its mystery. The very image of the mysterious symbol gives its owner some charm, which raises questions and arouses interest. For many, a similar tattoo serves as a kind of amulet, protecting and protecting from trouble.

As you might guess, the execution of such a work from the point of view of the artist is not the most laborious process. The vast majority of tattoos with hieroglyphs are done with black paint and, as a rule, their size rarely goes beyond the limits of a cigarette pack. There are times when a hieroglyph serves only as an addition to the main picture. A striking example of such work is the dragon tattoo, a photo of which can be found below.

Another popular thing among fans of tattoo art in the culture of the East is horoscope... Many of those who believe in fate, the predetermination of life and karma choose their zodiac sign in the Chinese or Japanese horoscope as their tattoo.

The most popular place for a tattoo depicting hieroglyphs remains neck... As you can imagine, such a drawing can be successfully placed almost anywhere. Great options would be the ankle, forearm, shoulder, and behind the ear.

And now we bring to your attention several popular Chinese characters with translation.
