37 Culture Corner Exploring China100%
The character of Chinese architecture lies in the character of the Chinese nation. A special part of the nation's art and thought, not just in the materials and methods of the structure itself.
Liang Xutong. First impressions.
Xi An has one of the oldest city walls in China. The wall is a living history of China. People can walk along it and get a view of the city.
Standing on the wall, you can see both ancient and modern architecture.
I like the Shanghai Museum, the Museum of Visiting. The building has a square base and a round roof. This design tells me about China's
ancient understanding of the world, round sky and square earth. It's on my list of must-visit places in China.
Hi, Lights. Read and think. What Chinese values do these buildings reflect?
Hu Tong, Ali and Sir He Yuan, courtyard house. Hu Tong and Sir He Yuan are special places unique to the city centre of Beijing.
A Hu Tong is an ancient city, Ali lined with Sir He Yuan. In Sir He Yuan, the walls around the buildings form a yard in the middle. Sir means east, west, south and north. The four directions.
Her means the traditional value of harmony in Chinese families. Many local people recognize Hu Tong and Sir He Yuan as the real home of Beijing's culture.
Nobody can say they have truly experienced Beijing without exploring Hu Tong and Sir He Yuan.
Classical gardens of Sujo The classical gardens of Sujo are called into UNESCO represent the development of Chinese landscape garden design over more than 2000 years.
The gardens date back to the 6th century BCE. The gardens arrange water, stones, plants and different kinds of buildings interlimited space.
They present different views to visitors at each step forward. They are praised as the finest examples of Chinese, natural mountain and water gardens.
The unique designs have a great influence on both Eastern and Western garden art.
The National Stadium The National Stadium served as the main stadium after 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
It was designed by Chinese and Swiss architects. The stadium is also called the Bird's Nest.
The steel structure makes it look like a bird's nest or a cradle that plays to nurture a new life. It is a single of people's hope for the future.
The Cinpo, but new design makes the stadium a special landmark for the 2000 and 8 Olympic Games.
The Bird's Nest has become a tourist attraction and a sports stadium for the public ever since the Olympics.
Bridging cultures
Lu Yao has a hobby of collecting stamps. She often shares knowledge about stamps with other collectors around the world.
Read the following letter about a stamp on the theme of Chinese local architecture and think about what you know about Toulou, earthen building.
Hi, Jim. I found an interesting stamp about Toulou. The residences of the Hakka people usually influence on province and some other places.
In 2008, 46 Toulou were selected as UNESCO World Heritage Site. This kind of building was built with earth and wood.
The outer walls have only one entrance. The rooms inside all have their doors and windows facing the yard.
Such a design can protect people from danger from the outside. Each Toulou can house hundreds of people. These people usually belong to a large family.
One Toulou is like a small village with space for activities in the large yard. Since you're collecting stamps on the theme of architecture, I'd like to give it to you. Hope you like it. Yours, Lu Yao.
