This article, in the Olympics section of Beijing-Travel-Guide.com, talks about the symbolic meaning of 6 Olympic colors, white, gray, red, yellow, blue and green. It’s a lovely way to see Chinese symbolism in all the Olympic adverts.
The Sydney Olympic symbol contains many meanings. The figure of an athlete, which was formed by instantly recognisable Australian shapes and colours, captures the essence of Sydney's aspirations of the Games. The boomerangs and suggestions of sun and rocks, together with the colour of the Harbour, beaches and red interior invoke the unique Australian landscape and its original inhabitants. The white flash turns the outline of the Sydney Opera House into a wavy line of smoke and echoes the Olympic Torch. The logo features the colours of the element earth, water and air, while the figure of the Millennium Athlete' also sets Sydney and Australia on its Olympic Journey.
The Sydney 2000 Olympic Games logo represents the promise made in Sydney's bid to host the Games, that it would be dedicated to the athletes of the world.
