Huizhou architecture is one of the important schools of traditional Chinese architecture. As an important part of Huizhou culture, Huizhou architecture has always been respected by Chinese and foreign architects, and it is popular in Huizhou (now Huangshan City, Jixi County and Wuyuan County) and western Zhejiang areas such as Yanzhou, Jinhua and Quzhou. Brick, wood and stone are used as raw materials, and wood frames are the main materials. The beam is made of huge materials and pays attention to decoration. Bricks, wood and stone carvings are also widely used, showing a superb level of decorative arts. Huizhou architecture originally originated in Dongyang and is a typical representative of Jiangnan architecture. Historically, Huizhou merchants operated in Yangzhou, Suzhou and other places, and Huizhou architecture also had a considerable impact on the local architectural style. Its structure is mostly multi-courtyard type (the small one is mostly three-courtyard type), generally sitting north to south, facing the mountain and facing the water. The layout is symmetrically divided by the central axis, with three rooms wide, a hall in the middle and rooms on both sides. The front of the hall is called "patio", which has lighting and ventilation, and also has the auspicious meaning of "four waters return to the hall" The overall appearance of the residential building is very beautiful, and the high walls are closed. Horsehead cocked up is called "martial arts" and founder is called "literature".
Huizhou school is a branch of Chinese style, and Huizhou school is very famous in Jiangnan. From the appearance, the upturned eaves in Jiangnan water town are black and white! Chinese style is a traditional design, which is reflected in the palaces in Beijing. The palace has a luxurious feeling, with porches, red windows, green columns and carved columns! There are courtyards, terraces, etc. And ancient poetry can use Chinese style very well. The garden villa in a dream of red mansions is a good portrayal of Chinese style! Huizhou school can go to Jiangnan to feel for itself. I am in Beijing, so I often go to the Summer Palace and so on. Only by being there, can we really understand the so-called styles and schools.
