Standard Design for Buddhist Temple Construction
- Standard Design for Buddhist Temple Construction
"Standard Design for Buddhist Temple Construction" is a Chinese language text written by Dàoxuān in the early Tang Dynasty. It described a design for Buddhist temples influenced by mainstream Chinese architecture, and based upon a traditional layout composed of multiple, related courtyards. That tradition can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou Dynasties.
