Jiao'an Tulou in Taishun, Zhejiang: A Forgotten Treasure of Time

[Rose] In the charming land of Zhejiang, there is a seriously underestimated "Big Fish and Begonia" earthen building group - Zhejiang Taishun Jiao'an Earthen Building. When you step into this mysterious area, it's as if you've traveled back to a distant past. [Rose] The circular earthen buildings here exude a strong sense of history. Each earthen building carries its own unique story, and the traces of time are deeply imprinted on them. Walking on the stone road of the earth building, the simple and vicissitudes of life atmosphere hits you. The mottled walls, like silent old men, quietly tell every bit of the past. [Rose] Walking into the earth building, I had a strange feeling of going back in time. The layout of the earth building is exquisite and practical, and the rooms are staggered. Despite a hundred years of wind and rain, it still stands tall and retains its original appearance. Those ancient doors, windows, beams and pillars, although a little old, are still strong. They have witnessed countless springs, summers, autumns and winters, and the changes in the lives of generations. [Rose] The unique charm of Jiao'an Tulou lies not only in the building itself, but also in the humanistic feelings it contains. Here, the relationship between neighbors is close and harmonious, and people's lives are simple and peaceful. In the center of the earth building is usually an open courtyard with sunlight shining on the ground. Children play here and the elderly sit together and tell ancient legends and stories. [Rose] The earthen building is surrounded by green mountains and clear waters, and the natural scenery and cultural landscape complement each other. In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight shines through the clouds and onto the roofs of the earth buildings, covering the entire village with a layer of golden glow. In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the walls of the earthen building, outlining a warm and peaceful picture. [Rose] It is worth mentioning that Taishun Jiao'an Tulou is open to tourists free of charge, and there is a free parking lot at the entrance, which provides great convenience for tourists. You can walk into this mysterious world without any burden and feel its charm. [Rose] When you leave Jiao'an Tulou, you may feel a deep attachment to it. Every brick, every blade of grass and every tree here are unforgettable. It is like a thick history book, waiting for more people to read and understand it. I believe that in the future, Taishun Jiao'an Tulou will be known by more people and become a bright business card for Zhejiang tourism.
