The Chinese word 北方 (běifāng) for "north" is composed of two characters: 北 (běi) and 方 (fāng). The character 北 originally meant "back" or "behind", and was used to refer to the direction opposite to the sun. In ancient China, people faced south when they built their houses, so the north was behind them. The character 方 originally meant "square" or "region", and was used to refer to a specific area or place. When the two characters are combined, 北方 (běifāng) means "the northern region" or "the north".
