What are the main buildings of ancient China and what is ancient Chinese architecture like?

In ancient times, the size of the house was called "depth", which was calculated by the number of longitudinal "halls".

Sanjin - It is composed of three halls: the longitudinal "entrance hall", "main hall" and "back hall".

Wujin - composed of five "halls" vertically.

Seven Entrances - Composed of seven "halls" in the vertical direction.

The two compartments of the hall are called "wing rooms", "one entry" is the hall and two spring search wings, and "seven entrances" are seven sets of such houses. This is the owner's living quarters.

The horizontal courtyard is called the "side courtyard". Generally a secondary household member's living quarters.

The typical history of the three entrances is: the first courtyard is from the "gate" to the "instrument door", the second courtyard is from the "instrument door" to the "inner instrument door", there is a hall in this courtyard, and the warm pavilion around it and the inner hall behind, and the third courtyard is from the "inner instrument door" to the "main hall".

The five-entry house is typical: the door to the instrument door, the instrument door to the hall, the hall to the inner hall, the inner hall to the inner instrument door to enter the inner room, and there is an inner hall behind the inner room.

The Qing Dynasty's noble mansion was divided into two parts: the outer house and the inner house. In the front half of the outer house, it is the host's place to receive guests and live, and it also has the nature of ceremonial and office areas, and its main building is called "hall"; The second half of the house is the residence of the owner and his family, and its main building is called "Tang", where the hostess can also invite female guests. The front hall and back hall are the main buildings in the house, and there are many outbuildings and courtyards around it.

These are the basic principles of the layout of classical Chinese architecture.
