These and Antithese
Closing:
As you can see China’s culture and
architecture is truly amazing. Houses were being built in the sides of
mountains, and the detail and design of the other houses around the regions
were amazing. With somewhat same values continued through out the houses around
the regions. Even the modern day buildings are a sight to see. The detail and
creativity that were put into the Olympic building in Beijing is astonishing. Economically
wise China’s shift from the traditional buildings to more of a modern style has
done well, but they need to find balance to be able to still hold on the masterpieces
of the past.
