Mythological birds in Sinosphere traditions
Fenghuang ( fung-HWAHNG) are mythological birds featuring in traditions throughout the Sinosphere. Fenghuang are understood to reign over all other birds: males and females were originally termed feng and huang respectively, but a gender distinction is typically no longer made, and fenghuang are generally considered a feminine entity to be paired with the traditionally masculine Chinese dragon. In the West, they are commonly called Chinese phoenixes, although mythological similarities with the Western/Persian phoenix are superficial.
