China's ancient courtyard buildings

Many people will research the courtyard only in Beijing, in fact, the whole China's architectural heritage is a courtyard culture. If you go to visit the Shanxi Qiao Jia Da Yuan, Pingyao Ancient City, you will find that even  China's businessmen of the history are also comply with the kind of humanistic philosophy which based on the Confucian philosophy.

To the gardens of Suzhou, people walking in the amazing scene of the Seven Wonders of the differences among the picturesque dream to experience architecture philosophy creating by ancient Chinese culture. I have accompanyed a foreign architect to visit gardens in Suzhou, after the conclusion we were dismayed, he said: the truly great building is not produced by an architect, but by philosophers, thinkers, scholars . As I could see this garden, it is essentially a home, or a den, or an ancient office, it is also like a garden, which can represente the Eastern culture. If we look at it as a home, then the person will forget about the house in which there are several living rooms, bedrooms, or that their size, height.they only enjoy the scene of the garden. if it is treated as a garden, the houses hidden among the landscape and its furnishings, also master the best portrayal of the spirit and soul. Chinese famous painter Qi Baishi said, things is wonderful between like and unlike, there is no skills, techniques,or as said in martial arts novels of Jin Yong's book "sword is not in hand but in heart" this is the best grade and the state.

China has modernized, but the old house demolished, and Beijing is more and more like New York, Hong Kong and Tokyo, but people do not know why they miss it so much
 in the courtyard, past courtyard will allow civilians live and work better.

China's ancient courtyard not only from the architecture, but also from a cultural, philosophical and spiritual levels unmatched in the modern sense.

The courtyard now has really become the treasure of an ivory tower , people living there has not only the wealth ... ... We have done several sets of foreign style courtyards, or is called  the new courtyard. In the center of modern city, in foreign arcthitec¡±s view ,to track down that kind of feeling, like a collision of Chinese and Western culture, integration and sublimation of feelings.
