Hakka Gem Hua'e Building

#chinaattractions Not Fujian! The 400 - year - old Guangdong Tulou, Hua'e Building, is a wonder. Built in 1608 (36th year of Ming Dynasty's Wanli reign), it's withstood centuries of elements. Located in Meizhou, Guangdong, backed by Tiger - shaped Mountain and facing Meitan River, it covers 2300 sqm with a 2286 - sqm construction area. It's the largest, most exquisitely designed and well - preserved ancient house among Guangdong earthen - walled houses. This civil - structure round building has three rings with 210 rooms in total. Each ring is connected, looking like a peeled orange, practical and beautiful. Its name from "Book of Songs" symbolizes neighborly love, reflecting Hakka values. It's a cultural and architectural gem. You can explore Hakka culture and ancient wisdom here. 🎏 Address: Lianfeng Village, Dadong Town, Dapu County, Meizhou 📍 Navigation: Meizhou Huazi Building 🔴 Note: There's a 5 - km mountain road after getting off the highway, some parts are steep. Easy to get stuck in traffic during holidays. 🎯 The building is under renovation. Exterior scaffolding is up and interior work has started, but you can still visit and walk the 2nd - floor circular corridor. Better to take photos after the repair. #travel #trip #localguides #localguides #historicallandmarks #familytrip
