Explain the construction structure of Buddhist houses and the characteristics of Buddhist architectu

It's too big to ask, is it the architectural style of Tibetan Buddhism or Sinicized Buddhism, whether it is the overall layout of the house or the detailed structure of the main hall. It is recommended to narrow down the scope, which is beneficial to others and also to your own search.

First is the mountain gate, after entering the first Tianwang Palace, the middle is dedicated to Maitreya Buddha, next to it is the 4 Heavenly Kings, and behind Maitreya Buddha is Veda Bodhisattva. Then there is the Mahavira Hall, which is dedicated to Shakyamuni Buddha in the middle, and next to it are Amitabha Buddha and Medicine Buddha. Next to around 18 Arhats.

Others (Manjushri Hall, Fuxian Hall, Guanyin Hall, Jizo Hall, Mida Hall, Wuguan Hall, Dharma Hall, Guest Hall, etc.) are adapted to local conditions.

Features: 1. The layout of the Buddhist temples in the Ming and Qing dynasties is generally a strictly symmetrical multi-entry courtyard form composed of the main house and the matching room. At the very front of the main axis is the Sanmon Gate – the entrance to the entire temple. The left and right sides of the mountain gate are divided into bells and drum towers.

2. The main hall is the central building for the entire Buddhist temple building group, and it is above other single buildings in terms of building volume and quality. The main hall is equipped with a hall on the left and right or in the form of a two-story pavilion. After the main hall, enter the courtyard, often build the two-storey "scripture building".

3. Arrange monks' houses, meditation halls, dining halls and other houses where monks live on both sides of the main axis courtyard. Beijing's large Buddhist temples, such as the Guangji Temple in the West Fourth Archway, belong to this type.

The Buddhist buildings are mainly Buddhist pagodas. There are many famous temples and pagodas in ancient India, such as the famous Bodh Gaya, Nalanda ruins, and the scale is extremely grand.

Southeast Asian countries have similar buildings. The Angkor Caves in Cambodia, the Shwedagon Pagoda in Myanmar, the Borobudur in Indonesia, and the Bamiyan Cliff Buddha in Afghanistan are all world-famous Buddhist buildings.

Buddhism was first introduced along the ancient Silk Road, which was not only an ancient channel, but also a way of cultural exchange, so the early cave temples in China also appeared along the route along this ancient road with the spread of Buddhism.

1. The Buddhist architecture was influenced by India in the early days, and the tower temple was centered on the tower, and the surrounding halls and monks' houses were built. The pagoda is the center of the temple with relics and Buddha statues. After the Jin and Tang dynasties, the hall gradually became the main building, the pagoda was moved outside the temple, and more temples were built in front of the temple, behind the temple or another tower courtyard, forming a Buddhist temple structure centered on the Daxiong Treasure Hall.

The temple sits in the north and faces south, and the main halls are distributed on the central axis in turn, with clear layers and rigorous layout.

2. The layout of Buddhist temples in the Ming and Qing dynasties is generally a strictly symmetrical multi-entry courtyard form composed of the main house and the matching room. At the very front of the main axis is the Sanmon Gate – the entrance to the entire temple. The left and right sides of the mountain gate are divided into bells and drum towers.

**Facing the mountain gate is the Tianwang Palace, which is often made into a hall of three halls in the form of a chain hall. Passing through the Tianwang Palace, entering the second courtyard, located on the main axis in the center is the main hall, often called the "Daxiong Treasure Palace". The main hall is the central building of the entire Buddhist temple complex, and it is above the other individual buildings in terms of building volume and quality.

The main hall is equipped with a hall on the left and right or in the form of a two-story pavilion. After the shed makes the main hall, one enters the courtyard, and often builds the two-story "scripture building". In addition, on both sides of the main axis courtyard, monks' houses, meditation halls, dining halls and other houses where monks live.

3. The Buddhist temple building is mainly based on the typical wooden frame structure, with staggered beams and columns, bucket arch support, herringbone slope roof on both sides, green tiles, glazed tiles or gilded copper tiles, these ancient Chinese architectural characteristics have been almost completely inherited by Buddhist temple buildings.
