Please see attachment:

1. Often, if the wall at marking "A" is extended e.g. as highlighted in yellow; and if there is no stove behind this; then "A" is often the preferred location over "B".

2. There is really limited space in such a layout plan.

2.1 Thus, often as you have highlighted marking "B" is the next better choice or last resort.

2.2 The reason why marking A is preferred is because:-

2.2.1 The altar is further away from the two bedrooms. Thus if one lights up joss sticks for many hours and if someone is in either of the bedrooms; there is a higher chance of getting lung cancer.

2.2.2 Although at marking "A"; still possible, thou. But at least it is further way from the bedrooms. If one is in the living room; then frankly it does not matter where the altar is: if it is lighted up most of the time.

2.2.3 Although it is common to walk in to see an altar; especially in a temple; some could consider that by doing so; the altar e.g. Guan Yin now becomes like a "condo" guard... seeing who's coming into the home. This is still not a major issue. Given that many homes does this sort of thing.

3. Thus, in general, marking "A" is a first choice if there is a solid wall behind the altar. From your diagram; looks like the wall is too short unless one uses only a 2 ft by 2ft altar and not one that is 35" or greater in width.

Hi Mr Cecil. Thanks a lot. I do not think I'm able to place the altar located at A as the wall is really small. But if I place at B, is ok if I placed the TV that location?

Thanks a lot for ur earlier advice.

1. Still possible to be a B. As nowadays TV sets are thin.

2. Best to use a standard altar or if not; most important the table top is 126cm or 49 3/4 inches is ideal
