Interlinked roof (goulianda wuding) refers to two or more roofs joined together to form a single roof. This type of roof configuration allows for greater variation and liveliness in the roof while maintaining the appearance of the lower part of the structure unchanged. Additionally, it expands interior space without increasing the overall height of the roof.
