Sichuan
In Hanyuan, Sichuan Province, China, on April 13, 2025, mascots representing red Sichuan pepper celebrate this emblematic spice of the region. Known for its pungent yet subtly citrus notes, red Sichuan pepper delivers the distinctive tingling and refreshing sensation characteristic of Sichuan cuisine. It is a symbol of a rich terroir and lies at the heart of local culinary traditions and cultural identity, a true red treasure of the Sichuan mountains. (Photo by Emeric Fohlen/NurPhoto)
