What role does the plaque play in the ancient architecture of China?

Plaque is an inevitable part of ancient architecture, equivalent to the eyes of ancient architecture. It is said that its appearance is due to the development of Heluo culture in the Central Plains, which is a manifestation of Chinese civilization.

For thousands of years, it has integrated the poems and songs, calligraphy and seal cutting, and architectural art in China's ancient cultural communication. With its concise poems, exquisite calligraphy, far-reaching implications, pointing out the mountains and commenting on people, it has become a wonderful flower in Chinese cultural gardens.

Plaques are usually hung above the door and under the eaves. When there are doors on all sides of the building, plaques can be hung on all sides, but the front door must have plaques, such as royal gardens, temples and the residences of some celebrities. It is an important symbol of our national culture.
