Today I learned about hanok.
Hanok don't use nails so they are easy to move or rebuild.
Hanok have traditional Korean heating system's known as ondol.
When we make fire in the 아궁이 the hot smoke goes under the floor.
And the hot smoke heats the floor.
The 사랑채 is the man's area and 안채 is for women.
The noble people took baths at night, in their room, with their clothes on because they were not allowed to show their inner body.
Noble men knowsn as(양반) lived in tiled-roof houses.
Palaces were painted with dancheong as decoration.
It must to be colored with five colors, red,green,black,white, and yellow.
And I also learn about Buddhist temples.
There are worship halls, lecture halls, and rooms for the monks.
Buddhist temples with pagodas have the word사 at the end of them, and if the temple doesn't have a pagoda the last word of the temple's name is ~암.
For example 불국사 has a pagoda but 석굴암 doesn't.
장독대 is pot used for storing things such as soy sauce.
The clay is different size so 장독대 have small holes.
Water or dirt can't go through them but air can.
So fresh air always comes inside which helps in fermentation and storage. |
