文章以洛阳白马寺和北京东堂为例,从材质用料、空间布局、内部陈设和细部装饰等方面比较了中国寺庙与西方教堂在建筑艺术上的差异。文化审美观念是中西宗教建筑呈现显著差异的重要原因。

Taking White Horse Temple and East Church as examples, the author compares Chinese temple and western church in aspects of materials, spatial distribution, furnishing and decoration. Because of different aesthetic concepts, great differences exist between the two kinds of religious architecture.
