From the Tang Dynasty (618–907) onwards, brick and stone architecture became more common and replaced wooden buildings. The earliest of this transition can be seen in many building projects. The earliest walls and platforms in China were of rammed （夯平的）earth construction, and over time, brick and stone became more frequently used. This can be seen in the Great Wall of China, and this is a wonder of the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644).

Meanwhile, the Chinese people and westerners also have many differences on aesthetic standards, character and temperament. All these impact the local arts of architectural design.
