Features: Throughout its long history, ancient Chinese architecture has consistently been a continuation of tradition, maintaining a unified architectural system with a unique style and distinctive characteristics, standing out in the global architectural system. This is closely related to traditional Chinese culture, its value orientation, and aesthetic tastes. The "Journey Through Chinese Ancient Architecture Culture" series consists of 18 volumes. It was conceived by the experienced architectural book and journal editor Yang Yongsheng, who also helped us review some manuscripts. The authors of each volume are experts, scholars, and professors in the field of ancient Chinese architecture research and teaching. With vivid and concise writing, they present the profound and extensive knowledge and culture of ancient architecture, enabling readers to gain a comprehensive understanding of its geographical location, natural environment, construction period, building materials, structural methods, architectural style, artistic features, and related historical stories while exploring famous ancient architectural sites.
