In these compounds, thick walls of rammed earth(夯土) and sometimes bricks(砖) and stone were built in a circle without windows, and inside rooms were built. These buildings show the creativity and cultural heritage of the local people. Nowadays they have attracted visitors from around the world to admire their beauty and historical meaning. In ancient times. it was believed that stars seemed to wheel around Heaven which was at the north. So within some compounds, the clan heads were positioned closer to Heaven than the others in the clan, and they also saw themselves as the representatives(代表) of the clan to Heaven. The northern part of the compound was considered the most important section. The Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, and the Ming Tombs were designed for this reason as well. Chinese Landscape Gardens Garden and courtyard architecture( 建 筑 风 格) was considered very important for the compounds of imperial clans, officials and wealthy clans.Fengshui principles(原则) determined the layout so that they could control the luck and health effects of the various elements of the gardens.

B “No building comes without carvings(雕刻), and carvings make buildings more valuable,” goes an old saying in Minnan, Fujian Province. The saying refers to brick carvings, which were an important part of the old red brick buildings in the area. Wu Jiandong, a young brick carver from Fujian’ s Quanzhou City, became worried when he discovered that this traditional art was fading. The carvings were once commonly found on either side of the main entrance of Minnan’ s buildings, but with development, the number of ancient red brick buildings has decreased, causing Minnan's brick carvings to have gradually been out of sight. The 42-year-old has learned the traditional technique and decided to mix it with modern tastes to develop his own style of brick carvings. Wu said that he hoped to help the traditional art form continue through innovation(创新). People in Minnan love tea, so Wu created a series of carved brick tea decorations, including tea plates, cup holders, pot holders and other things.They have been warmly received by local people and foreign visitors. Earlier this year, an art piece with a swallow tail ridge(燕尾形屋脊) and a bright moon was bought by an overseas Chinese man from the Philippines. The customer told Wu that he would hang it in his office as a reminder of the buildings and the moon of his hometown. Wu’ s works are now more popular among people, and this helps him to pass down the tradition and further develop his pieces, and the popularity of short videos has also given him new hopes of promoting(推广) Minnan brick carvings. Recently, he has designed a DIY brick carving experience box called Wei Yu Huan Xi(or“OnlyYou are Happy”). “I hope that more young people will make their own pieces with the knife and red brick in the box, and enjoy a sense of achievement through my video;” Wu said.
