Why there are no four floors and 18 floors in high-rise buildings? Why do people shut up!

Why there are no four floors and 18 floors in high-rise buildings? Why do people shut up!

4hw.org: many people who live or work in high-rise buildings will surely find this problem. Most of the high-rise buildings do not have 4 floors or 18 floors. In the elevator, they are replaced by 17a or skip 4 floors with 5 floors. What is the reason? What are people afraid of?

There are many factors for people to choose floors, including noise, lighting, water supply and the special needs of their families.

However, due to the role of traditional thinking, many people are still afraid of some so-called unlucky figures, such as the 4th, 13th, 14th and 18th floors. In order to facilitate sales, many developers will even avoid these numbers, and adopt the method of 'transplanting flowers and trees' to replace them with some letters such as D, e, F, or directly cross these two numbers. On the third floor, there are five floors, on the 12th floor, there are 15 floors. The elevator goes up to the 17th floor, and on the top floor, there are 19 floors or 17a

The Chinese taboo of "4" is because "4" and "death" have the same sound. After adding "1", the "14" is the "quater", which is about equal to "dying". It's not good. It's too unlucky. We have to change it! There must be no such numbers in the elevator, nor on the floor or even on the house number. But the westerner taboo 13, that's because the last supper by Da & middot Finch, Christ Jesus and his disciples eat together, the 13th person to attend the dinner is Judas. 18 also reminds people of the 18 stories of hell. Many people think that 8 is similar to "hair", which should be a good floor for grabbing. Some people think that "seven up and eight down", and they believe that living on the eighth floor will go downhill.

Of course, as the saying goes, believe or not. So is Fengshui. When you start to believe in this, there's no way to live. There's something wrong with life. For example, where the fish tank and potted plants should be placed in the family, there is learning and attention right or wrong.

For example, a real estate developer told me that the so-called 18 floors underground are hell, and the 18 floors above the ground are heaven. The 18 floors hell means that there are 18 floors in total, not the 17 floors of health care, but the 18 floors are hell. There are eighteen layers of hell, and there are one, two, three layers of hell, but the user experience of each layer is different.
