On the orders of the Emperor, the Chinese method of construction in wood
was set down in a detailed handbook (Yingzao fashi). These characteristic
wooden construction methods have been handed down from generation to
generation until the present day, thanks to that handbook and the system’s
great adaptability. It is unique in architectural history for the structure
of building to enjoy such longevity. In the 20th century, teaching models
of great precision were made to document the most important Buddhist
temples and palaces. All the details are reproduced exactly in the large-
format models, in order to enable study and reconstruction of the
historical buildings. These models evidence the unique beauty and technique
of wooden construction methods and thus offer fascinating insights into the
tradition of Chinese architecture.
