《中国建筑》中国古代建筑不仅是中国现代建筑设计的借鉴，也产生了世界性的影响，成为举世瞩目的文化遗产。欣赏中国古建筑，就好比翻开一部沉甸甸的史书。那洪荒远古的传说，秦皇汉武的丰功，大唐帝国的气概，明清宫禁的烟云，还有湮没在史书中的千千万万普通劳动者的聪明才智，都一一被它形象地记录下来。（Some people believe that one can understand a country beginning with its architecture, for architecture is aconcentrated life history of human beings, living memories and also a plain language. Traditional Chinese architecture is one of the three major architectural systems in the world, the other two being European architecture and Islamic architecture. Be it a house or a mansion, a palace or a temple, a bridge or a tower...it never fails to show the effects of culture, history, politics, religion and society. Chinese Architecture, with elaborately selected and highly representative ancient Chinese architecture and hundreds of excellent pictures of ancient buildings, gives a vivid introduction to almost all aspects of Chinese architectural art and a detailed explanation of the cultural connotation behind different architectural forms.）
