The earliest China architecture in the west.

From 17 to 18, there is a striking word in the history of European culture, and that is chinoiserie (Chinese style). At that time, China's porcelain, wallpaper, embroidery, clothing, furniture and architecture were all the rage in European countries represented by Britain and France. Among them, China's gardens are particularly important, which have a far-reaching impact on European gardening art and have undergone tremendous changes. In just a few decades, many Chinese-style buildings have been built on the European continent.

Sweden's "China Palace"

1753, King Frederick I built a China Pavilion for her not far from the palace. This is the fusion of Chinese palace and French rococo architecture. The whole building is arched, and the top of the palace is decorated like China Palace, and dragons are deliberately carved, but there are no glazed tiles.

France honglou

An ochre-red Chinese-style building is located near Monso Park in the rich area of Paris. Lu, the builder, is from China and came to France at the end of 19. The original mission of this Chinese-style building is to load China antiques, but with the passage of time, its building itself has become an antique in the Parisian cultural heritage.

"China Tower" in Munich British Park

This is a tower built by Germans according to their own imagination of China wooden tower, which is called "China Tower". China Tower was built in 1789- 1790. The design and production are all done in one painting, and every detail of the tower built by China has not been carefully studied. Therefore, the tower made in China seems a little unlike that made in China. At that time, the Germans yearned for the distant oriental art, but failed to travel long distances to China, so they built such a tower partly by legend and partly by imagination.

The China Tower in autumn is beautiful and classical.

/kloc-After the 0/8th century, the "China fever" in Europe gradually subsided. For the next 100 or 200 years, China has been in a position of being invaded and despised, and the value of Chinese culture is in a weak state. The Chinese gardens built after 1980 are richer in content, which can be roughly divided into the following categories: exhibition halls, works exhibited at horticultural festivals, friendly gifts between cities, memorial buildings and sightseeing parks.
