What are the styles of ancient buildings in China?

The styles of ancient architecture in China refer to "fairy hall", "inclined roof" and "suspended roof". The roofs of traditional buildings in China are characterized by far eaves, multi-decorative structures and arc roofs. The reason is to protect the wooden frame and pursue more changes. After a long period of development and creation, various styles of roofs have appeared in China buildings.

Characteristics of Ancient Architecture in China

There is a positive ridge and four oblique ridges on the four slopes of the Dai roof, and the roof is slightly curved. Sipo is commonly known as the double-eaves Dai Dingdian with five ridges and four slopes, also known as the Five Ridges Hall. The roof located on the top of the mountain is one of the roof forms of ancient Han architecture, and its specifications are second only to Dai Dingdian.

Rolling shed roof is to change the included angle between two sloping roofs without positive ridge into a soft circular curve and replace it with a simple slab tile, which is a bit like the roof of a car. Due to the different plane shapes, the pyramid-shaped roof storage tips are divided into square storage tips, circular storage tips and hexagonal storage tips, and the apex of the storage tips is called Baoding, which is mostly designed as a round-seated sphere.
