What are the characteristics of Shanxi residence?

Shanxi dwellings and other areas of traditional dwellings of the same characteristics of the **** are living in the clan, sitting in the north and facing the south, focusing on internal lighting; wooden beams to bear the weight of the brick, stone, earth retaining walls; to the center of the hall, to the carving of beams and painting and decorative roofs, gables and gables are good at.

Shanxi Folk House is an important school of traditional Chinese folk house architecture. Among the Chinese folk houses, Shanxi folk houses and Wannan folk houses are equally famous, and there has always been the saying "North Shanxi, South Wannan".

Shanxi dwellings, the most affluent, the most gorgeous dwellings to be counted along the Fen River, while the Fen River basin dwellings, the most representative and the number of Qixian and Pingyao.

House Characteristics:

Zhao City Huozhou's houses occupy a lot more than Jiexiu generally much more relaxed. Zhao Cheng house gable part of the particularly rich wood carvings, the courtyard is really a dazzling array of painting beams and carvings, although the house is large, the contact is very good, because of the compartment and the main house is more connected to the belonging to the passable.

Shanzhuang wealthy housing this kind of house in a manor can have two or three, far away from each other, can still be imagined that day's flames. The ground occupied by the large, high walls, masonry and wood on the craft, the complexity of the pavilion, are out of our expectations much. Ling Shi to the south, in the Fen Shui east and west of a few villages, back of the mountains near the water, not suitable for farming, which the rich family are business in other provinces, after getting rich back to build houses to show off the clan.

The house is built in the same form as the other Shanxi preoccupation with the house, but closer to the official style of Beiping, the workmanship is extremely perfect. The outer wall of the stone construction is amazingly strong, there is the so-called "hundred-foot building", that is, the outer wall of this house, built according to the cliffs, the building resides on it. By the Zhuang outside the distant view, ten miles away is visible, 100 feet stands, Cuiwei Qiwei, enough to town mountains and rivers, for the glory of the building.

Difference

Nongzhuang residence is in a very small village, the rich farmers in the village often have a very elaborate house, this house and the northern city of "tile house" in the same model, all to "four head" as the basic form of distribution, in the screen door, hanging flower door and so on. The most different with the Beiping usually see four points:

One, in the plane, assuming that the main room to the south, the location of the east and west rooms in the north room "through the face of the broad" within the width, so that the main courtyard into a long north-south, east-west, narrow and narrow, long and narrow, losing the form of the four sides. This arrangement in the plane of course is to save a lot of land, than will be moved out of the main room outside the broad economy, and because of this, the main room and the roof of the room (mostly flat roof) is very easy to contact, the location of the stone ladder, can be in the north end of the room, sandwiched between the main room and the room, to a certain course can be divided into two sides, one side to turn on the roof of the room, and then on the side of the roof of the room on the top of the main room up to a few more levels.

Second, although it is said to be a tiled house, the real is still a flat-roofed brick kiln, leaving only the front porch or the front part of the eaves with the slope of the green tile. Side view is like a brick wall in front of the "rain hitch".

Third, the impression of the appearance of the house and the so-called three rooms with the same, but the interior is still three kilns, kilns and kilns with hair coupons between the door, the impression is not at all like an ordinary house.

Fourth, the back of the house, the daughter of the wall is made into a citadel-style battlements, so the whole back of the house from the outside look straight into a fortress.
