Introducing the Ancient Architecture Museum

The Beijing Ancient Architecture Museum was established to preserve and study ancient architecture. Here, you can see architectural models, materials, and drawings.

When you think of Chinese architecture, don't you think of vibrant colors like red, yellow, and blue? In Chinese architecture, red is the most important color, symbolizing luck and wealth. In addition, yellow symbolizes the emperor, and blue symbolizes the sky and peace. Learn about the meanings behind Chinese architecture here.

Ornate and Detailed Ceilings

Have you noticed the ornate ceilings when looking at ancient Chinese buildings? In traditional Chinese architecture, the ceiling is a very important aesthetic element that represents the meaning and authority of the space, and the class of the person using the space. In particular, the dragon is an element symbolizing the emperor, representing the connection with the heavens, the emperor's authority, and sacredness.

Pay close attention to the ceiling decorations that connect the celestial world with the human world and represent the authority and sacredness of the building!
