Abstract
The Shaanxi province and its capital, the city of Xi'an, are areas of concentration of traditional Chinese architecture outstanding monuments. The study of the peculiarities of the genesis and compositional construction of various objects of functional purposes as a framework for restoration and monument protection activities is relevant. Using the example of the author's drawings of the temples of the Shaanxi province, the departure from the dominant pagodas of Buddhism borrowed from India in the early periods towards the temples of the local religions of Taoism and Confucianism, whose architecture is subordinated to the local environment, in the late Ming and Qing periods is argued. The commonality of temples with secular buildings – residential pavilions and small architectural forms – pavilions, which is a national and regional feature, has been proven. The gradual simplification of the types of local temples, the decrease in the number of varieties and the eclecticism of forms indicate compliance with the general process of style formation - emergence, flowering, gradual decline due to eclecticism.
