My house faces south, the gate faces east, and there is a north-south road in front. Can I make a kitchen in the south? My home is in the northern plain.

According to traditional geomantic omen, the kitchen should face east or southeast, which has advantages and disadvantages. This statement comes from the concept of five elements. Wood in the east, water in the southeast, fire and water in the kitchen, wood burning for fire and water moistening wood are all interrelated. It is the pattern of open wood fire, which gives people a very smooth feeling and can cultivate a healthy, harmonious and diligent family.

In terms of hygiene, the kitchen is located in the east or southeast, which is most suitable for safe and hygienic storage of food. In the east and southeast, the air is fresh and the temperature is low in the morning, so you can enjoy the sunshine. When the temperature is high at noon, it becomes a cool place, so the freshness of food can be maintained for a long time and it is not easy to rot.

From a practical point of view, the northwest wind often blows in winter in northern China. Setting the kitchen in the east or southeast direction can match the wind direction and is beneficial to the burning of firewood. Although there is no need to burn firewood now, when the northwest wind comes, all kinds of smells in the kitchen can be blown outdoors, which can keep the air in the whole house fresh and avoid the narrow air pollution brought by the kitchen.

The kitchen is an important part of the house, so we should also pay attention to the orientation of the kitchen.
