Standard Design for Buddhist Temple Construction is a Chinese language text written by Daoxuan in the early Tang dynasty.
It described a design for Buddhist temples influenced by mainstream Chinese architecture, and based upon a traditional layout composed of multiple, related courtyards.
This architectural tradition can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
