Abu Zakkour, known as the Yellow Man, walks down the street in Aleppo, Syria, Dec.19, 2018. Abu Zakkour, a 68-year-old man in the Syrian northern city of Aleppo, has apparently become a symbol of peculiarity in the city with the yellow color he has been dressed in for the past 35 years. All his obsession with yellow started on Jan. 25, 1983 when Zakkour decided to be a Yellow Man, as this color represents love in his eyes. The man wears everything in yellow, including his suits, neckties, shirts, underwear, socks, slippers and glasses. Even his suitcase is yellow.  (Xinhua/Ammar Safarjalani)
