Feng Shui History

Feng Shui history goes back a long time. Feng Shui, as a practical philosophy, exists before the Chinese learn to write. The ancient wise people used the most original and basic binary form of "Yin" and "Yang" to reason the events of the world around them. The palaces and tombs of the royal families built in Tang dynasty (618-907) and all the following dynasties, strictly followed the prescription of the Feng Shui requirement. When the Buddhism reached China, it soon absorbed the Feng Shui principles and combined in its own practices. The historical Buddhism temples, most locate at famous mountains in China, are all build with the idea of Feng Shui in mind.The practice of Feng Shui was severely undermined in China since the 20th century. With the invasion of the European countries, Chinese intellectuals begin to question their heritage.Under the banner of 'learn from the west', Feng Shui is regarded as superstition' by many.
