Why is the Emperor's bedroom only 10m2 wide?

If you want to know why the emperor's bedroom was so cramped, let's read the article below.

The emperor had the whole world in his hands, had a vast palace with thousands of thousands of beautiful concubines. However, not many people know that the king's bedroom is less than 10m2 wide .

The cause is rooted in an ancient Chinese feng shui theory. The ancients said: 'Big bedroom but few people are big bedroom'. Bedroom area too large will suck the human spirit. People in the room themselves will have to use a lot of energy to fill the space. Therefore, the bigger the room is, the more damage it causes. When energy is depleted, the physical nature will be weak, the face will be drooping, the ability to guess will decrease, and it will be easy to make mistakes.

Experts on the Imperial Palace show that Beijing is located in a humid continental climate, influenced by monsoon. The summer is hot and humid, the winter cold with snow and dry. Spring often suffers from sandstorms from the Mongolian steppe. At that time, there was no modern equipment to limit the impact of the weather.

In addition, the roof and walls are very thick. It helps to keep the heat in winter limiting the effects of summer heat.

Those are the reasons why the emperor's bedroom is usually quite small. This design both ensures warm, cool down to satisfy feng shui elements to help the emperor have the best health, to pursue the longevity dream.
