Huang cheng feng shui
Beijing is called the most ideal capital in the world because it is surrounded by mountains and has the most floors. The first rule of feng shui is the mountain ring. The more stories surrounded by mountains, the more people support them.
Nanjing, surrounded by mountains and rivers, is an excellent treasure, but dynasties with Nanjing as their capital were generally short-lived. Legend has it that Qin Shihuang listened to rumors, dug the Qinhuai River and hollowed out Fangshan Mountain within his rule, leaving only an empty shell in Nanjing's feng shui pattern.
Xi 'an, located in Guanzhong Basin, is a rare livable place in the Central Plains. However, with the change of climate, "Bashui" around Chang 'an gradually dried up. Although it is still a livable place, the feng shui is not as good as before.
