I can find lots of answers of how to change Seaborn's figure size. I want to know: what is the default figure size?

I believe seaborn uses matplotlib's default parameters when plotting axes, so you can check the figsize with matplotlib.rcParams.
import matplotlib
matplotlib.rcParams['figure.figsize']
# [12.0, 7.0]
import seaborn as sns
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(columns=['x','y'])
ax = sns.scatterplot(data=df, x="x", y="x")
ax.figure.get_size_inches()
# array([12., 7.])
Now for advanced plotting functions that generate figures, this is defined by the function.
For example relplot, displot... have a default parameter of height=5 (inches) and aspect=1, which translates into a figsize of [5,5] for a single subplot/facet, and proportionally more for several cols/rows in the FacetGrid.
pairplot has a default of height=2.5 and jointplot of height=6.
