Abstract

Starting from the architectural layout of Beijing quadrangle courtyard, this paper makes a philosophical reflection on the relationship between man and nature contained in it, and discusses the embodiment of the concepts of Yin and Yang, cosmology and geomancy in Beijing quadrangle courtyard in ancient Chinese philosophy. It is believed that the architectural design of Beijing quadrangle courtyard is influenced by the natural view of ancient philosophy and enriches the content of it, which can be reflected by the architecture itself, so that can make it easier for future generations to understand the traditional Chinese ideology and culture and attach importance to the enlightening significance of tradition.
