Poland was the featured country at the 2023 Taipei International Book Exhibition. As such, a number of Polish-themed booths were featured at the exhibition. To promote environmental sustainability, the organizers this year launched a Polish-themed EasyCard to replace paper admission passes used in the past. The card features the red and white colors of the Polish flag as the background, adorned with centuries-old Polish pottery patterns.
Flag: The national flag of Poland consists of two equal horizontal bands, white above red. The red symbolizes the courage and sacrifice associated with the nation's struggles for independence, while the white represents the silver eagle featured on Poland's coat of arms, a symbol of purity.
