This paper investigates, analyses and summarizes the formation background, basic type, architectural layout, courtyard arrangement and decorative art of the cave dwellings in west Henan by means of literature summarization and field investigation, and explores the artistic characteristics and existing significance of the traditional earth architecture. As a typical representative of the Central Plains culture, the cave dwelling houses in west Henan have their own unique architectural style while merging with the Central Plains culture based on the Yellow River and the surrounding cultural circle, which can stimulate the vitality of the local culture in the Central Plains, and provides reference value for study on humanistic resources in the Central Plains and theory of the regional cultural characteristics.
