What kind of house can really be called "Beijing Siheyuan"?

Is it really worthy? Beijing quadrangle? Two conditions must be met. The first condition is obvious: the house is located in Beijing. The second condition is to meet the characteristics of Beijing quadrangles. Beijing quadrangles are generally located in hutongs, because in the old Beijing period, the quadrangles were all houses of aristocratic families scattered in hutongs, and later the newly built quadrangles lost this street flavor.

From the perspective of overlooking, Beijing Siheyuan is a courtyard surrounded by four independent houses, and the whole courtyard is a space surrounded by four houses, which is divided into four directions: east, west, north and south. From the gate of the quadrangle, it is an ordinary house, but after entering, there will be a cave. Moreover, according to the characteristics of ancient buildings, quadrangles are generally divided into anteroom, back hall, garden, wing, veranda, building, wing and so on.

Even the design of the screen wall can't be removed. In short, the oldest architectural style has been maintained. The ancient big houses seen in the play are actually the design of quadrangles. Siheyuan usually occupies a large area with a special courtyard inside. In addition to living in a quadrangle, there is actually a garden landscape inside. In ancient times, it was inconvenient for people to go out. Some girls could not go out all their lives and could only enjoy the beautiful scenery at home. So many quadrangles will also build rockeries and running water to add some fun.

The design of the quadrangle looks like a word, and the whole courtyard will be deep. If you want to see the host, you usually have to go into the yard three times. If the host doesn't want to see anyone, even if he enters the quadrangle, he won't see the host. After all, this yard is too big. Moreover, there are many designs of quadrangles that pay attention to geomantic omen. In addition, there are few quadrangles left now, so the price of quadrangles in Beijing is very expensive, and people who can live in quadrangles are in a very powerful position.
