hippie culture

Peace and love

Hippie culture refers to the countercultural movement that emerged in the 1960s, characterized by rejection of mainstream values, experimentation with drugs and spirituality, communal living, and advocacy for peace and free love.

The aesthetic included long hair, tie-dye, and folk or psychedelic rock music.

The Haight-Ashbury district became the epicenter of hippie culture.

The term now evokes nostalgia or describes neo-hippie lifestyles emphasizing environmentalism and alternative spirituality.
