China is located in the northern hemisphere of the earth, in the east of Eurasia, and most of its territory is located in the north of the Tropic of Cancer (north latitude).

As early as the primitive society, our ancestors built village houses in the direction of sitting north facing south, and most of the houses discovered by archaeology faced south.

It's also November when the vast desert winds live in the north. The wind lives in the northeast, and the first month is also. The Ming people lived in the east and in February. The Qingming wind lives in the southeast dimension, also in April. The scenery is in the south, and it is also May. The cool breeze lives in the southwest, and it is also June. Occasionally the wind blows in the west, and it is also September. " There is a difference between evil wind and yang wind.
Gou Guangguoting wrote in his book Critique of Earth Science to the South: "Pingyang is not afraid of the wind, but there is a difference between Yin and Yang. It happens that people exposed in the east and south directions are warm, which is called yang wind. The cold wind from west to north is called Ming wind, and there is a blue case. Otherwise, the wind will blow the bones and the main family will decline. " Sitting direction is also called mountain direction. One is to take the gate as the direction. The orientation of the house is determined according to the orientation of the gate.
