The best preservation of architecture is often found in temples and churches because they are regarded as divine buildings that humankind is not supposed to interfere with. Zen Buddhist architecture is based on the temples found in China and Japan. They represent the Chinese and Japanese architecture of the high end (temples and palaces). Christian Architecture is practically the history of Western Architecture but mostly focused on the cathedrals of Catholicism. This seminar offers a brief comparison between Eastern and Western architectural traditions.
