四合院的英文介绍
Foreign visitors often think siheyuan is bungalow,actually it is not bungalow.It is traditional graceful chinese building.A standard Siheyuan usually consists of houses on its four sides,and the house which stands at the north end and faces athe south is called the main house or north house.The ones on both sides are called side houses,and the one shich stands at the south end and faces north is called oopposite house or south house.
The Siheyuan ‘s gate is usually at the southeastern corner according to the traditional concepts of the five elements that were believed to compose the universe,and the eight diagrams of divination.Normally there is a screen-wall inside the gate so that outsiders cannot see directly into the courtyard and it is also believed to protect the house from evil spirits.Outside the gate of some large siheyuan,there is a pair of stone lions on each side.Such a residence offers space,comfort and quiet privacy.It is also good for security as well as protection against dust and storms.
The gates are usually painted vermilion and have large copper door rings.Usually a whole family lives in one compound.The elder generation lives in the main house,the younger generation live in the side houses,and the south house is usually their sitting room or study.
