Whether it is a yin house or a yang house, traditional feng shui places emphasis on "left green dragon and right white tiger" for the surrounding environment.

The sages of our country are very beautiful. As early as the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Chu State Doctor Wu Ju gave a definition of beauty.

The curvaceous beauty of traditional Fengshui is mainly reflected in two aspects: "mountain surrounded by water" and "winding path leading to seclusion". Yuan Mei of the Qing Dynasty wrote in his "Book with Han Shaozhen": "The one who is noble, the literary is. There are literary stars in the sky, but there is no literary star. The straight of the wood has no literary, and the one with the fist of the wood has literary text; the water is still. Those who have no literature, and those who are stricken by the wind have literature."
