Windows play an important part in this, allowing a feeling of wind, rain, and light to pass through. In fact, a cursory examination of Chinese poetry will reveal many references to this aspect of the window's function.
在室內，透過窗，能感受到外面的風、雨、光影及人聲，中國詩詞中有許多關於這方面的記載，例如：「風搖竹聲入小窗」，「空床臥聽南窗雨」，「山風吹亂了窗紙上的松痕」等。
