Bedeutung
Holding an umbrella for rain/sun.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Umbrellas are used year-round, not just for rain. Sun protection is a major reason for 'Htee Saung'. Monks carry traditional maroon umbrellas. It is a sign of respect for a layperson to hold the umbrella for a monk. The Pathein Htee is a famous traditional craft. These umbrellas are made of paper and bamboo and are highly decorative. The 'White Umbrella' was the ultimate symbol of kingship in Myanmar. Only the king could use it.
