Doors In china.

In China doors are often round, leaf
shaped or semicircular. In placing
them the builder usually avoids having
one opposite another lest evil spirits
find their way from the street into the
recesses of the building. The door
ways separating the courts of garden
are usually of an elaborate kind, and
the octagonal form is one of the most
popular.
Religious superstition asserts itself in
Chinese architecture. and the universal
sacredness Of the numerals three and
nine is shown in the arrangement Of
temple doors. There is triple gate

palace, and the same order prevails at
