Ancient architecture generally follows architectural concepts such as geomantic omen, geographical location and environment.

The ancients generally considered the following factors when building houses:

1. The terrain is higher than the surrounding area, preferably more than one meter high.

The ancients didn't build houses by the river, because it was risky.

3. It depends on the surrounding environment, such as mountains or tall buildings, trees and other factors that affect Feng Shui. Try to stay away from mountains or towers.
