Its eastern border, comprising more than 7,000 miles of coastline, abuts the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea, and the South China Sea. In addition, its land borders 14 other countries. The world's most populous nation, with 1.2 billion people, China consists of 23 provinces and several autonomous regions including, most recently, Hong Kong. Ruled by emperors for more than 3000 years and by Communism for nearly 50 years, China has often been criticized for its widespread repression of personal freedom. But even the complexity of its geography and politics are overshadowed by the richness of its culture and history.

Traditional Chinese Culture In Taiwan : Architecture
Introduction and history of Chinese architecture.
http://www.houstoncul.org/culdir/arch/arch.htm

Extractions: People who come to the Republic of China for the first time and see examples of traditional Chinese buildings with their curved roofs, bold colors, and intricate outlines may wonder how the Chinese ever came up with this unique architectural style. The basic feature of Chinese architecture is rectangularly-shaped units of space joined together into a whole. Temples in ancient Greece also employed rectangular spaces, but the overall effect tended to austerity. The Chinese style, by contrast, combines rectangular shapes varying in size and position according to importance into an organic whole, with each level and component clearly distinguished. As a result, traditional Chinese style buildings have an imposing yet dynamic and intriguing exterior. The combination of units of space in traditional Chinese architecture abides by the principles of balance and symmetry. The main structure is the axis, and the secondary structures are positioned as two wings on either side to form the main room and yard. Residences, official buildings, temples, and palaces all follow these same basic principles. The distribution of interior space reflects Chinese social and ethical values. In traditional residential buildings, for example, members of a family are assigned living quarters based on the family hierarchy. The master of the house occupies the main room, the elder members of the master's family live in the compound in back, and the younger members of the family live in the wings to the left and right; those with seniority on the left, and the others on the right.

Extractions: Home Agriculture Art Business ... Travel Chinese People Summary Summary Fact Sheet Graphics Chinese People Chinese people is peaceful, hardworking and easily contented. They respect elders, love children and are patient with their fellows. Chinese in general are reserve and humble. They believe in harmony and never look for confrontation. History has told that Chinese is non-invasive. During the period of British and the west expanding their powers to Asia, North America, Australia and New Zealand, China became the target of the G8 invasion. Chinese are very proud of their civilized society since the early day. They are open and pragmatic towards differences in religions and culture. Foreigners are welcome and being treated more fairly. China have been very receptive to Jews in the early days in Kaifung city and later in Shanghai when they were rejected by other countries during the World War II. . China has long history or even a painful past. The fact is that China today is still very poor and most of the Chinese are still living in poverty. It is time for Chinese to work together that China will progress with other nations and their people can live happily and peacefully from hereafter. Tea culture is very Chinese. Yet Chinese enjoy drinking coffee too. There is no point to compare which one is better. Both are good as long as you enjoy it. Both are bad if you hate it.

Qi means literally air, which represents a kind of energy flowing according to certain routes in your body. Gong means the great effort or work put into the qi practice. Through working inside your body and mind, using the methodology of Qigong, you may achieve a perfect harmony in your body, mind, and spirit, so this may lead to a more energetic and healthier life. Therefore, Qigong is the Chinese way of cultivating the human body and is the ancient Chinese methodology for health, therapy, and longevity. Qigong has a history of at least 3,000 years in China. It is believed that Qigong was gradually developed through the struggle for survival in ancient China. People found that certain body movements along with various ways of breathing and mental concentration, could greatly improve some body functions. These techniques and knowledge were further refined over time and passed down through generations. Qigong often has a strong bond with religions, particularly Taoist and Buddhist. One of the examples of this bond is Shaolin Temple, which is well known for its martial arts or Qigong (Qigong is considered the base of martial arts). Many quite different forms of Qigong were established over the long history of Qigong. The bond between Qigong and religions is an important factor for the many forms of Qigong.
