Success upon heeding advice! The real-life version of 'Big Fish & Begonia' is too shocking! It's worth the tripYongding Tulou, made of mud and glutinous rice board for walls, is exquisite and sturdy, a fortress in chaotic times. The Tulou is centered around a clan ancestral hall, either round or square, with circles within circles, and the beauty of science and art is displayed between the square and the round. To this day, people still live in the Tulou, the same clan, the same bloodline, the same family, generations living together, helping each other, and a small world that shelters from the wind and rain has been formed. Chengqi Building is the most famous one, known as the 'King of Tulou', and became popular because of the national animation 'Big Fish & Begonia'. Qiaofu Building is a blend of Chinese and Western styles, and has produced 11 PhDs, including a female medical doctor.

Exquisite architectureI've wanted to visit the Yongding Tulou in Fujian for a long time, and I'm really shocked to be here today. Today, I first visited the Chengqi Building and Qiaofu Building in the Yongding Tulou King Scenic Area, and experienced the earth buildings built by our ancestors, which can resist foreign invasions and maintain good relationships among neighbors. It's indeed a great architectural masterpiece. Although it's not the peak tourist season now, there are still many tourists. The weather is beautiful, and I can take great photos.TastyTreatsTantalizer
Chuxi Ancient Building ClusterI have long wanted to visit the world-famous Fujian ancient buildings, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as a cluster in Yongding. After reading many travel guides, I finally chose Chuxi Ancient Building, for two reasons. First, it is the most convenient to drive to, and you can also see the sporadic ancient buildings along the way. Second, Chuxi Ancient Building has preserved the most original appearance of the ancient buildings. The key to this trip is to make sure to go up the mountain to the viewing platform, where you can see the full view of the ancient building cluster. If you go early, you can also see the curling smoke from the houses. The Yongding Tulou Cluster nestles against the mountains and is lush with greenery, facing south and north, arranged in an orderly fashion. The tens of thousands of Hakka earthen buildings stand in the mountains and fields, coexisting with heaven and earth, and are a masterpiece of the Hakka people in promoting the Central Plains culture, truly deserving of the title 'World Heritage'.BRIELLE WILLIAMS
A Hakka Tulou Museum without a gate.In Fujian, I finally saw the scenes from 'Big Fish & Begonia.' When I was young, no one ever told me how to walk the path of adulthood, so I loved to seek traces of life during my travels. Maybe my life's photos are not just of people, but more of those unforgettable sceneries at first glance. I remember the weather that day, sometimes stormy, sometimes sunny. On the uphill road, a cute little yellow dog was guiding us. As we approached the Tulou, the first sight was not only shocking but also moving. I finally saw the scenes I loved from the anime, and finally came to the place where the admired creator, who has passed away, filmed and created. My wish in my heart was fulfilled. We went to Yongding Tulou. It's best to book tickets a day in advance for discounts. There is a viewing area that requires a short hike, so it's best to wear non-slip athletic shoes. At the top, you can see the four iconic round buildings of the 'Chuxi Tulou Cluster.' Moreover, Yongding Tulou is divided into three main types: Wufeng Lou, square buildings, and round buildings. Inside the Tulou, it feels very comfortable. The structure of Yongding Tulou better reflects the Hakka people's lifestyle of living together in the same building and their spirit of unity. In short, it's very suitable for a short holiday trip for special forces!當地嚮導蘇聰英
How to Choose Fujian Tulou? (Complete Guide Included)Fujian Tulou counts more than 10,000 buildings, and before I went there, I was a bit confused about how to choose and how to get there, plus there are so many names of Tulou, and I always felt something was missing from the posts online, so I organized my thoughts after coming back for your reference: 🏠Introduction to Tulou 1⃣️History: The people from the Central Plains built Tulou in the south to avoid wars. 2⃣️Shape: Tulou are not only round, they can be categorized into round, square, and Wufeng buildings (symmetrical left and right, lower in the front and higher in the back, with roofs shaped like flying birds, hence the name Wufeng). 3⃣️Structure: There are corridor-style enclosed buildings and unit-style enclosed buildings. Most of the key Tulou scenic areas we visit are corridor-style, meaning the middle parts are interconnected, while unit-style are not. 4⃣️Function: Vertically, each building houses one family, with the kitchen on the first floor, granary on the second, and living quarters above the third floor. The first and second floors have no windows to prevent thieves and wild animals from climbing in. 🎑Classification of Tulou Mainly divided into Nanjing, Yongding, and Hua'an, with most concentrated in the first two. - Nanjing: Yunshuiyao, Tianluokeng, Hekeng - Yongding: Gaobei, Hongkeng, Chuxi, Nanxi - Hua'an: Dadi (Specific key Tulou features, ticket prices, and routes are detailed in the image) ❓How to Choose Tulou Generally, you visit 2 scenic areas in one day, and most people don't care about the details. I suggest choosing one from the commercial scenic areas, as they are quite similar. - More commercial: Yunshuiyao, Tianluokeng, Gaobei, Hongkeng - More homestays: Yunshuiyao, Tianluokeng - Public transportation available: Yunshuiyao, Tianluokeng, Yongding Tulou King - Good for photography, fewer people: Chuxi The following are personal opinions, not guidance: - Classic route lovers: Tianluokeng + Gaobei (Tulou King) - Unique feature lovers: Tianluokeng + Hongkeng (Tulou Prince) - Water enthusiasts: Yunshuiyao - Photography and quietness lovers: Tianluokeng + Chuxi - Focused understanding: Tianluokeng or Gaobei/Hongkeng or Chuxi (choose one of three) 🪧A Few Additional Points 1. I think Tianluokeng is more interesting and cost-effective than Yunshuiyao, which is more frequented by tour groups, but it still depends on your purpose. If you just want to stroll around, it doesn't matter which you choose. 2. Just choosing any key Tulou will give you a general idea, as there are so many, they only differ in layout and features, that's all. 4. Apart from Chuxi Jiqing Building, you have to pay to go upstairs in other Tulous, be aware of free tea and free well visits. 5. Tulous are generally located on mountain roads, requiring walking, so it's recommended not to wear high heels. 🍜Eating and Accommodation Yunshuiyao and Tianluokeng both have well-equipped restaurants and homestays, while other Tulous have villagers who cook for themselves, suitable for individual travelers, and not every Tulou offers in-house hostels, most do not. 🚗How to Get There Departing from Zhangzhou Ancient City: 1. Join a tour group: One-day tour prices usually range from 300 to 700. 2. Chartered car: Tianluokeng + Yongding Tulou King 550, Tianluokeng + Chuxi 650 (excluding tickets) 3. Self-driving: Yongding and Nanjing are about 100 kilometers away from Zhangzhou, about a 1-hour drive one way. 4. Public transportation: Tianluokeng/Yunshuiyao/Hekeng have minibuses from Nanjing high-speed rail to the scenic area, and each scenic area is quite scattered, with no taxis available.Scarlett Hollister

The entrance to the scenic spot to the Tulou has to cross a commercial street. There are 4 Tulous, only 3 can be visited, and one is still under maintenance. However, Chengqi Building is still worth seeing, but it can only be on the first floor. It is said that it can be climbed after 8 pm.
The Chinese culture is vast and profound, the gems of architectural art can not be preserved, the design is unique and worth watching, the local residents are very simple, eat a lot of food, fruit is also very cheap, will go again in the future.
The history of the Tulou is more than 800 years. It is worth seeing. The weather is very good. The photos are magnificent. The folk customs are relatively simple. The food is great. I have the opportunity to see the Tulou in other places in the future.
The whole Tulou group played for about 3 hours. The Tulou is well preserved, in it, like the backflow of time, the cross beams and windows everywhere, simple and natural, the details are worth savoring slowly. There are many local specialties for sale in the scenic area, and the price is very reasonable. There are local handmade tobacco, various health teas, etc., as well as recorded souvenirs, juice tea drinks can be seen everywhere, and the price is fair.
❤️ Tulou is located in two areas, some of which are called Nanjing Tulou. It has the most Tulou group. You can watch the famous "four dishes and one soup". The other part is Yongding Tulou. It has the largest Tulou Wang Chengqi Building. It takes about 50 minutes between the two scenic spots. ❤️ We visited the Tulou Wang Scenic Area, which is composed of five Tulous, three rounds and two squares. When you get here, you can see seven points in three points. You can ask a tour guide in the service area. The official price is 80 yuan and you can have a knife. These tour guides are residents in the Tulou, so the official is similar to the wild guide. ❤️ The first building is the circular Qiaofu Building. Its designer is now in his 90s. The old man is basking in the sun and greets every tourist warmly. The owner of the building spent 90,000 yuan to build it in the 1960s, which was already a large family at that time. Next to the Qiaofu Building is the largest round earth building in the entire scenic area, and the earth building Wang Chengqi Building is also the most in Guinness. The tour guide we hired has four rooms in Chengqi Building for homestay use. You can book a room in Meituan to experience it. ❤️ On the other side of Chengqi Building is the square Shize Building. Between the two floors is called the first-line sky, which can be photographed. The earth building is built with wood and then poured in the adobe, so it is very strong. ❤️ Next to Shize Building is the same-styling Wuyun Building. It is currently under maintenance and cannot be seen. Visual inspection is similar to Shize Building. We went shopping for more than two hours on the three floors, plus went to the tour guide's house to taste tea and eat. It took a total of four and a half hours to end the trip. Nanjing Tulou has the opportunity to develop it again.
Very convenient, the waiter service industry is very warm and the experience is very good. When I entered the door, I also took the mobile phone to find the Ctrip code, found one, and the latter few people could not find it. When I was in a hurry, the waiter said that I would use my ID card directly and scan it. It really went into the park smoothly.
Traveling with friends in Qingming, Yongding Tulou is very fun, shocking, impressive, and worth a visit. It retains a very primitive and traditional Hakka house style, combines tradition with modern art organically, and there are many people living now.
