But in Li Chung yao's view, the building has a number of admirable features: Firstly, because the building faces east and catches the sun, the design includes arcaded outside walkways along the east, south and west sides to prevent the sunlight shining directly in through the windows; the north side has no such arcades.
但在李重耀眼中，總督府有幾項特色耐人尋味：首先，由於坐西朝東正迎日曬，於是在整棟建築的東、南、西側，都設計了外部迴廊以隔離太陽直接照射，北側則無此設計，頗符合「物理環境」。
