About Pu Tang Interior Popinae

Pu Tang est interior popinae in urbe Nanjing, in Sinis, spatium 1284 metrorum quadratorum complectens. Dispositio septem conclavia privata et unum conclave theanum continet, quorum unumquodque argumento e symbolis litteratorum sumpto nititur, qualia sunt prunus, orchis, bambusa et chrysanthemum. Tabulatum medium aedificii sublatum est, ut atrium interius plantis formaretur et lux diurna in singula conclavia induceretur. Porticus visualis prospectus hortorum praebet, dum lapides, aqua, muscus et filix naturalem regionem efficiunt. Marmor naturale et tabulae ligneae parietibus adhibentur.
