Research On The Architectural Type Of Chinese Buddhist Monasteries In The Beijing-Tianjin Region During The Ming And Qing Dynasties Under The Influence Of The "Baizhang Qinggui"

“Baizhang Qinggui” is a Zen monastic system formed from the Tang Dynasty.After a long period of development,it became a management system commonly adopted by Chinese Buddhist monasteries in China between the Yuan and Ming Dynasties,penetrating into all aspects of monastic life,and making a profound impact on the architectural system of the Buddhist monasteries.The Beijing-Tianjin region was the political and economic center of the country during the Yuan,Ming,and Qing dynasties.In this period,a large number of monasteries were built and expanded,and relatively preserved to this day,clearly reflecting the pattern of Buddhist monasteries in this period.On the basis of in-depth study of the description on the architectural type system in the “Baizhang Qinggui”,this paper conducts field investigation on 11 representative Chinese Buddhist monasteries in Beijing-Tianjin Region,analyzes their architectural types,and compares them with the relevant descriptions of the“Baizhang Qinggui”,and pointing out that under the influence of the“Baizhang Qinggui”,the Chinese Buddhist monasteries formed a universal basic architectural type system in the Ming and Qing dynasties.The core content of which was basically implemented in each monastery,and the specific layout and organization design were adapted to local conditions.From this,we can intuitively understand the formation of the architectural configuration law of Chinese Buddhist monasteries,so as to deepen the understanding of the process of Sinicization of Buddhism and Chinese Buddhist architecture.
