Why does the house "sit facing south"? What's the argument?

Our country is located in the northern hemisphere, and the house faces south, which is conducive to receiving more sunshine and longer sunshine time. Houses are generally sunny in the south and cloudy in the north. This house is for people to live in. If people want to live comfortably, they must first keep good indoor ventilation. Let fresh air blow in easily, and at the same time blow away the moisture and odor generated indoors! The biggest reason is that the house facing south has good lighting conditions, and the lighting will be better. If the apartment is transparent from north to south, it will be cool in summer and warmer in winter than in other directions. This is also a habit handed down from ancient times. So why should the house "sit north facing south"?

If you don't face south and don't let the sun shine, the ground in the house will be very wet. Living in such an environment will make people sick. So often let the sun bask in the sun, which can well drive away the moisture in the house. As the Yellow Emperor said, it is good to sleep with your feet facing south and your head facing north, not to mention a room! In the northern hemisphere, in the land north of the Tropic of Cancer, you can sit facing south and wait for more sunshine.

Housing has a close relationship with people and has a great influence on people. It needs plenty of sunshine, and sitting facing south can meet this requirement. In summer, the sun can't feel the direct sunlight overhead. Friends who live in this direction may know better. Therefore, based on this geographical location, it is more appropriate for our house to return to the south. Daylighting is very important, of course, to prevent the cold northwest wind from attacking in winter.

At the same time, sitting south can avoid the north wind in winter. Then in the cold winter when the north wind is howling, people will not feel the wind pouring in from time to time, making people tremble. This is the life experience and architectural style summed up by our people in thousands of years' practice, which accords with the theory of Yin and Yang of Feng Shui. China is in the northern hemisphere, with houses facing south, mountains facing water, leeward and sunny, warm in winter and cool in summer, moisture-proof lighting, energy saving and consumption reduction, and so on. Therefore, in order to collect more light, ancient houses will face south.
