The balcony is in the north.

The expression "the balcony is in the north" is very common in Chinese, which means that the balcony of the house faces north. In the traditional geomantic omen of China and other East Asian countries, the north is regarded as negative, with cold, cloudy, cold and quiet attributes. Therefore, in some traditional geomantic views, the balcony facing north is considered unfavorable, which makes people feel lonely and gloomy, and even affects the fortune and wealth of the residents at home.

If there is a balcony facing north at home, how to solve the adverse effects caused by it? It also depends on the specific situation, including whether there are tall buildings or hills in the north that can block the cold wind. If there is, the balcony facing north will not be so unfavorable. In addition, the design and management of the balcony, sunlight and other factors need to be considered. If properly designed, managed and sunny, the balcony can still be a comfortable and warm leisure space.

Although the balcony is considered unfavorable in the north, it can also explore its different value. For example, when it is hot in summer, the balcony facing north will be cooler than the balconies in other directions and become a cool and comfortable place. At the same time, it also provides opportunities for residents to enjoy the scenery in the north, such as enjoying the snow scene and enjoying the rivers in the north. So although the balcony is in the north, it is not necessarily a bad thing. The balcony should be used and designed according to the actual situation to give full play to the maximum value of the balcony.
