Take a stroll to Kaiping Diaolou and Villages, the filming location of 'The Whirlwind'

Kaiping City's Chikan Overseas Chinese Town is a modern commercial town standing on the banks of the Tanjiang River, and it is also a famous hometown of overseas Chinese in South China. Historically, Chikan was known far and wide for its port. It not only has stories of the Guan and Situ clans promoting the construction and development of the entire town through a century of competition and coordination; it also preserves more than 680 exquisite overseas Chinese arcade buildings that stretch for nearly 3 kilometers, blending Chinese and Western styles. This is the largest, most continuous, and best-preserved collection of ancient overseas Chinese arcade buildings in the country, acclaimed as an 'astonishing corridor of Chinese and Western architectural art'. It is also a typical representative of the fusion of overseas Chinese culture and architectural culture, sharing its unique charm and value with the world cultural heritage site of Kaiping Diaolou and Villages. It is the location for the exterior scenes of the TV series 'The Whirlwind'.
