'The ancient auspicious patterns on Chinese architecture are full of Chinese symbolism and pursuit of life. Hong Kong, Kowloon, and the New Territories have preserved many traditional residential buildings, study rooms, ancestral halls, and even temples full of historical value, while the carved dragons, phoenixes, lions, qilins, and so on on the roof beams conceal subtle folk beliefs. The buildings have been preserved and passed down, and the auspicious patterns on the roof tiles have become an indispensable part of traditional Chinese folk art. Opening this book, while reading about folk beliefs, one is also reading about the beauty of Chinese architecture.中式建築上的古祥圖案，飽含華人對生活的寓意與追求。.港九新界保留了不少充滿歷史價值的傳統民居、書室、祠堂甚或廟宇,而屋樑上雕刻的龍、鳳、獅子、麒麟等:均隱藏了微妙的民間信仰。建築物得以保留和傅承下來，屋瓦上的吉祥圖案也成為了中國民間傳统藝術不可不認識的部分。翻開本書，閲讀民間信仰的同時，也在閱讀中式建築之美。The ancient auspicious patterns introduced in this book are composed of different materials, such as gray carving, wood carving, stone carving, calligraphy and painting, etc. They combine various beautiful graphic shapes to convey people’s expectations for a better life. The author of this book, Su Wanxing, has personally collected auspicious patterns from all over Hong Kong for many years. He has organized the pictures into a total of ten chapters, including flowers, plants, auspicious birds, artifact symbols, fame and fortune, education, myths and legends, folk stories, marital harmony, longevity and seclusion, and traditional Chinese opera on tile ridges. Each auspicious pattern is accompanied by pictures and text, leading the reader to appreciate the elegance and characteristics of Chinese architecture.本書介紹的古祥圖案來自不同物料構成，如灰雕、木雕石雕、書畫等,集合了各種優美的圖造型，傳遞人們對美好生活的期盼。本書作者蘇萬興多年來親身搜集遍佈於全港各處的吉祥圖案，將圖片梳理成合共十章，分別是花草植物、瑞默仙禽、器物符號、功名利祿、教化、神話傳说、民間故事、夫妻和睦、長壽隱逸和瓦脊上的戲曲，每一種吉祥圖案，均以圖文並茂的方式，带領者細味中式建築的優雅與特色。
