Features: The author of this book breaks away from the traditional obscure and difficult writing style of textbooks, employing a more human-centric and intuitive language along with detailed illustrations to thoroughly and rigorously analyze the history of ancient Chinese architecture from primitive society to the Qing Dynasty. This approach enables readers to complete their learning in a relaxed reading atmosphere. Additionally, the book incorporates residential architecture, which has been less frequently covered in previous histories of ancient architecture. This is because tracing back to the origins of architecture reveals that all buildings have evolved from various types of residential structures.
