Lonely Planet review

Located within what is called the Hall of Jupiter (太岁殿; Tàisuì Diàn) is the excellent Beijing Ancient Architecture Museum (; - ) which informatively narrates the elements of traditional Chinese building techniques. Brush up on your dǒugǒng brackets and sǔnmǎo joints, get the lowdown on Běijīng's courtyard houses, while eyeballing detailed models of standout temple halls and pagodas from across the land.
