The ultimate guide to Fujian Tulou. Read it and set off! Preliminary preparations Documents: Prepare your ID card. If you have discount certificates such as student IDs or senior citizen cards, bring them along to save money. Clothing: Choose clothing according to the season. Take sun protection measures in summer and bring light and breathable clothing. Pay attention to keeping warm in winter; a thick coat is essential. Other items: A pair of comfortable sneakers for long walks; a power bank in case your phone runs out of battery; and rain gear to cope with changeable weather. Transportation guide External transportation: First arrive in a city in Fujian, such as Xiamen or Zhangzhou. Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport and Zhangzhou Station are easily accessible. Internal transportation: From Xiamen, Zhangzhou, and other places, you can take a special bus to Tulou at the local passenger station, or you can choose to sign up for a local one-day tour group, which is more convenient with bus transfers. Attractions Yongding Tulou: Famous Tulou buildings include Zhencheng Lou and Chengqi Lou. The former is a model of the integration of Chinese and Western Tulou styles, known as the "Prince of Tulou"; the latter is grand in scale and known as the "King of Tulou". You can spend 1–2 days exploring them. Nanjing Tulou: The Tianluokeng Tulou Cluster is composed of square and round Tulou buildings, which look like a plum blossom from above, which is very spectacular. The pillars of Yuchan Lou are tilted but still stand, which is very interesting. The whole tour takes about 1–2 days. Food recommendations Mei Cai Kou Rou: Not greasy, the aroma of Mei Cai is integrated into the meat, and every bite is super satisfying. Tulou Bamboo Rice: The rice has the fragrance of bamboo and a soft and glutinous texture. Hakka Stuffed Tofu: Tender tofu is filled with meat filling, and the taste is mellow. Accommodation recommendations Tulou B&Bs: Staying in a Tulou allows you to experience Tulou life in depth, but the number of rooms is limited, so it is best to book in advance. Surrounding hotels: The accommodation conditions are more modern, with a variety of prices to choose from, and it is equally convenient to travel. Things to note Plan your itinerary in advance. The Tulou attractions are scattered, and reasonable arrangements can improve the efficiency of your visit. Pay attention to safety when visiting. The stairs of the Tulou are steep, so the elderly and children should be extra careful. Respect the living habits of local residents, take care of the Tulou buildings, and do not scribble or graffiti.

Taking the children to the Tulou is a journey full of curiosity and significance. We set out from our residence early in the morning. The children excitedly discussed what the earth buildings looked like, wondering whether they would be as tall as a castle or as complicated as a maze. From a distance, we could see the round building standing abruptly in the valley. Its earth-yellow walls and the surrounding green mountains and waters set off each other, exuding an ancient and solemn atmosphere. As soon as the children got off the car, they were attracted by the scene before them. They asked curiously, "Who lives here?" "How many people are there in such a big house?" After entering the earth building, we began to explore. The structure inside is more exquisite than we imagined. There are different rooms on each floor. Some are living spaces, some are storage warehouses, and some small spaces are used to raise chickens and ducks, which made the children exclaim in amazement. They ran happily in the corridor, from the first floor to the third floor, amazed that each floor had its own purpose, and admired the architectural beauty of the earth building. A local grandfather greeted us with a smile, and the children came up to him and asked him curiously about the history of this place. Grandpa continued to talk: "This earth building has a history of hundreds of years. It was built by our ancestors so that the family can live together and at the same time resist foreign enemies." The children listened attentively, their eyes wide open, as if imagining the scene of the family reuniting here at that time. While walking in the earthen building, I noticed some old photos on the wall, which were traces of the lives of several generations. From those smiles, I seemed to see the bustle, joy of life and ordinary warmth that once existed here. The children pointed at the children in the photo and asked me, "Did these people also grow up here?" I nodded gently, and couldn't help but sigh in my heart, how many people's years and memories are carried here. Finally, we stood outside the earth building and looked back at the magnificent building. The setting sun dyed the entire earth building with a golden glow, as if telling us a story of history. The children waved their hands and said goodbye to the earth building. I also made a silent wish in my heart, hoping that this journey would leave a deep impression on them and let them know that there is such a unique building in the world. It is not only a home, but also a continuation of history and culture. On the way back, the children became quiet, perhaps recalling everything they had seen today. The majesty of the earthen buildings and the vicissitudes of the stories seem to have planted a small seed in the children's hearts. As they grow up, perhaps one day, they will quietly sprout in their hearts. 🗓️Itinerary: Charter a car from Xiamen to Tulou, arrange two main settlements (original ecology and Yunshuiyao) #Xuan Ma's Travel Notes #Parent-child Travel #Tian Di Xiu Explore World Heritage #World Heritage #Tulou

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.

I checked a lot of guides before I went. It's really better to go there yourself to know... Depart from near Zhangzhou Ancient City If you take a ride/taxi, the one-way price is about 200 Considering that the return trip is directly to Zhangzhou High-speed Railway Station So I decided to charter a car, which is really recommended! : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : ✅Tianluokeng Tulou Group-Yunshuiyao (about half an hour) ⭐Heguilou Built on the swamp, it is the tallest Tulou in Nanjing and is also listed in the World Heritage List ⭐Banyan Tree in the Ancient Town Walking down the cobblestone road from Heguilou, you will see many banyan trees that are more than hundreds of years old with lush branches and leaves. ⭐Waterwheel The dining spot next to the waterwheel was chosen, which made my parents very satisfied. Eat some local vegetables and salt chicken, and taste the scented tea made with golden thread vine in the earth building, which is sweet in the mouth. ⭐Huaiyuan Tower Because it is a circular building like "Big Fish and Begonia", and buses can drive directly there, with the arrival of tour groups, it is difficult to get in and out. If there are not many people, you can take a closer look. 🕰Overall time: Departs at 8:30 and ends at 3:00 (about 5 hours) 💰Expenses: Tickets to Tianluokeng Scenic Area: 90 yuan/person, 45 yuan/person for seniors Tickets to Yunshuiyao Scenic Area: 90 yuan/person, 45 yuan/person for seniors Chartered car for 3 people, 550 yuan for 2 attractions

The prototype of the place where Chun lives in the film 'Big Fish & Begonia' comes from the Fujian Tulou - Chengqi Lou, the king of buildings. Many people who come to Tulou for the first time will hesitate whether to go to Nanjing Tulou or Yongding Tulou. Considering the convenience of transportation and the diversity of Tulou types, it is recommended to choose Nanjing Tulou, because you can go to Yunshuiyao for a leisurely walk, see the Big Fish & Begonia version of Tulou, and see the 'Four Dishes and One Soup' often seen in Tulou promotional films. Fujian Tulou is mostly built by Hakka people, so it is also called Hakka Tulou. Because most of the Hakka people migrated from the Central Plains, they were deeply influenced by the culture of the Central Plains. During the migration process, in order to survive, they had to face various life hardships, so they built houses according to the Bagua. A Tulou is the center of a family's cohesion. The special nature of Hakka Tulou's collective living reflects the strong family ethics of the Hakka people. Route: Xiamen-Yunshuiyao Ancient Town-Taxia Village (accommodation)-Yuchang Lou-Tianluokeng Tulou Cluster-Zhangzhou or Xiamen Transportation: Prefer self-driving, public transportation is not very convenient Precautions: If you want to go upstairs, you need to pay the local villagers 5-20 yuan, depending on the off-peak season and the number of people you travel with, after all, it is indeed their current accommodation. First stop: Yunshuiyao was built in the Yuan Dynasty, with a 10-kilometer-long ancient road paved with cobblestones. Many TV shows and movies have been filmed here. Walking around Yunshuiyao, you can see many different types of Tulou clusters, including Hegui Lou, Huaiyuan Lou and other Tulous. Hegui Lou is the tallest square building among all Fujian Tulous (many are round). But what is truly amazing is that the entire building is actually built on a 3000 square meter swamp, with only more than 200 pine piles and pads underneath, and Hegui Lou has stood on this huge floating bed for more than 200 years, amazing! Accommodation: There are many homestays in Taxia Village, you can choose at will, the village is very comfortable, there are many places to eat, you can eat Zhangzhou specialty dishes at will. It's just that sometimes when there are too many cars, the road is narrow and it's not easy to drive. Second stop: Yuchang Lou, Nanjing Yuchang Lou is a very old and largest round Tulou, built in 1368, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. I posted a video before, it's very spectacular. The pillars are leaning east and west, with a maximum inclination of 15 degrees, it looks shaky, but it has stood up after countless earthquakes! Third stop: Tianluokeng Tulou Cluster, Tianluokeng is an excellent place to appreciate the local natural environment. Because its appearance is four round buildings surrounding a square building, it is also jokingly called 'Four Dishes and One Soup' by people. The five Tulous are said to represent gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. You can enjoy the view from the viewing platform, or you can go down the mountain from the viewing platform to the inside of the Tulou one by one

Tulou Fujian. Exceptional traditional building and a very special type of communal living. People living their harmonious relationship with their environment and relatives. Built in 18th century and designed with an inward-looking, circular or square floor design. They were built for defense purposes around a central open courtyard with only one entrance and windows to the outside only above the first floor. Amazing history indeed. Deep within the enchanting landscapes of Fujian, China, lies a hidden gem that beckons the intrepid traveler to embark on an extraordinary expedition. Prepare to be transported to a world where time stands still, where ancient traditions intertwine with breathtaking architecture, and where adventure awaits at every turn. Welcome to the Tulou, a place that defies all expectations and promises a voyage of a lifetime. As you venture into the heart of Fujian, the anticipation builds, fueling your spirit of adventure. The Tulou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a cluster of earthen buildings that have stood for centuries, each one a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the Hakka people who call this place home. #trip #China #chinatravel #chinalife #tulou #adventure #beautiful #adventuretrip

Fujian tulou are traditional circular communal dwellings in China's Fujian province. These UNESCO World Heritage sites offer a glimpse into the unique lifestyle of the Hakka people. Primarily built between the 15th and 20th centuries, tulou served as fortified homes, providing safety and fostering community bonds. They often house multiple families and include features like a central courtyard, living quarters, and storage areas. While tourism has increased, some tulou continue to be inhabited, blending tradition with modern influences. #timetotravel #China #fujian #asia

•Xiamen - Day 3 ~ These giant shaped houses are spectacular relics of traditional rural Chinese architecture🎎 Starting from 15th century Hakka people still live there😳 ~ 💸 - 198 yuan (NY season) with agency 🚌- one way 2,5 hours with a comfortable bus ‼️‼️‼️ I went with a Chinese agency and I was told there will be good lunch + bottled water + fruits + 5/6 hours spend in the village… BUT… • Lunch was awful (so take snacks and sandwiches with you) • Water take with you as well • In fact, 2 hours in the village! ~ 🤌🏼 in the village I tried passion fruit drink 5 yuan, delicious! ~ ❗️In this Tulou you won’t find the sightseeing platform❗️ ~ 不要看人，有一个办法😏飞飞无人机 #xiamen #xiamentravel #mytripvlog #newyearadventure #fujian #tulou #fujiantulou

2-3 hours drive out of Xiamen, these Hakka people wonders are a must see when you are in Fujian province. There are many sets/clusters of tulou, we visited Tianloukeng, Xiaban, Taxia, Hekeng and stayed in one in Hongkeng village!! What an amazing experience. You can catch buses or train from Xiamen out towards the tulou but then you need a car to get around them - our inn host arranged a car and driver for us for the entire trip out of Xiamen which was stress free and perfect. Your should definitely spend a night up there as well and try the local cuisine.

Getting There - rental car from Xiamen, 3-4h Attractions - earth buildings and old traditional communities. Good for a long weekend :) Hotels - plenty of local options Food & Restaurants - local, local only

Fujian Tulou is a unique large-scale residential building in the world and is known as a treasure of traditional Chinese residential buildings. Because most of them were built by the Hakka people in Fujian, they are also called "Hakka Tulou".

The Fujian Tulou  is a Unesco World Heritage site. A Tulou is a type of dwelling built  in the mountains of southern Fujian. A Tulou is a large round, enclosed structure that is usually circular or rectangular in shape and is used to house multiple families. They are usually between 2 to 5 storeys high and the largest Tulou can hold up to a hundred families. Every family in the Tulou community enjoys perfect equality because every room in a Tulou is the same size and has exactly the same design. You can get to Fujian Tulou by car, train or bus. We hired a driver for the day so it was very convenient to travel between the different Tulous. This is a very unique experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone. #summervacation

Tulou (土楼) are massive round or square earthen buildings constructed by Hakka people throughout south China, particularly in inland Fujian. Built for residential and defensive purposes, they were home to one or more clans comprising several families, with individual apartments facing inwards to a common courtyard. Some are still inhabited nowadays while others are in poor condition, but they're now one of the most popular tourist attractions in the area and well worth visiting. Getting There - The tulou are scattered throughout the countryside, so it's difficult to visit them without a car. We took the train from Xiamen to Nanjing (南靖 — not to be confused with the former capital Nanjing 南京) where we found many drivers. We negotiated a route and price with one driver, who took us first to a guesthouse (not included in the price) and then on an excellent one day tour of several Hakka villages. This was probably the most flexible way to see the area without our own car and the price was reasonable. Note that it's also necessary to buy a ticket to the tulou area; the funds raised by these passes supposedly go towards preservation of the ancient buildings. Attractions - As well as the tulou, there are ancient temples and high terraced fields, making this a great place for photography. Hotels - There are many guesthouses and small hotels in the area, including some inside tulou themselves. We stayed in the hotel recommended by our driver, which was clean and comfortable and run by a very friendly local couple. Food & Restaurants - Many guesthouses offer food and there are many other restaurants catering for the crowds of tourists who visit this area. Shopping - Inside the tulou many families have opened small shops selling tea and other local produce, handicrafts and knick-knacks. Many of the tea shops offer a chance to taste several different kinds of Fujianese tea (our driver took us to a couple of places for tasting.) #solstice #summervacation #urbanexplorer

If you have been to the Tulou, you must know that The outdoor circle on the first floor of the Tulou Scenic Area is full of various souvenirs and stalls selling snacks so you can see from this photo. There is really no tourist here. I was very excited to see the Tulou for the first time. The picture in the movie Now I am also in and I feel super magical.

Compared with Xiamen, Ganzhou is not a hot tourist destination. But when it comes to earth buildings, it is familiar. Fujian's classic earth buildings are mainly distributed in Yongding County of Longyan City and Nanjing County of Cangzhou City. The famous earth buildings in Yongding County are concentrated in Hukeng Town and Xiayang Town. The famous earth buildings in Nanjing County are concentrated in Shuyang Town and Meilin Town. Nanjing County, the ancient name of Lanshui County, brings together the oldest, most beautiful, highest, largest, smallest and most unique earth buildings in the country. The Tulou Scenic Area is distributed in a circular shape with a diameter of 10Km. The most famous ones are Tianluokeng Tulou Group, Dongpu West Lean Yuchang Building, Hekeng Tulou Building, Huaiyuan Building, Hegui Building and Taxia Village. The name of the Tianluokeng Tulou Group originated in the 1960s. The satellite photos taken in the United States mistaken the five earthen buildings in Tianluokeng as China's nuclear reactors, causing the international community to be at a loss. In addition to the role of nuclear reactors and the World Heritage List, today's fame is also known as the "four dishes and one soup."

amazing trip to visit such an awesome location. simply breath taking. 小明 is a great guide. Super friendly and helpful. he is always forthcoming with tons of stories and advice on how to travel, where to go and what to eat. 非常棒！

Kudos to Driver Li for our Yunshuiyao & Tulouwang tour! Today, we toured Yunshuiyao and Tulouwang with Driver Li, and the entire experience was truly captivating! When we left the city, Driver Li had already checked the road conditions and, upon arriving at Yunshuiyao, he parked the car as close to the entrance as possible to help us connect with the tour guide. He was incredibly attentive during the drive. When we passed the Nanjing Tulou cluster, he proactively shared the architectural story behind the "Four Dishes and One Soup" (a traditional Chinese dish). When we arrived at Yunshuiyao Ancient Town, he reminded us that the cobblestone roads were slippery and that there were a lot of mosquitoes, so we needed to avoid them. He was even more attentive and professional than a local guide. His driving skills were impeccable. The winding mountain road near the Tulou was full of curves and steep slopes, but he felt as stable as if he were on flat ground. Such a reliable and caring driver, I highly recommend him! I'd love to take Driver Li's car again when I visit southern Fujian next time!

Don't just focus on Yongding! These tulou in Zhangzhou are even more worth exploring— 🌟Must-Visit List 1. Tianluokeng Tulou Cluster The "Four Dishes and One Soup" is truly remarkable! 🍲 Four round tulou surround one square tulou, resembling pearls scattered in the mountains when viewed from the observation deck. In the early morning, mist envelops the tulou, and rising smoke adds a touch of rustic charm. Step inside to see the Hakka-style courtyards and wooden corridors, and listen to the elders share stories of family life. 2. Yuchang Lou The "Leaning Tulou" is absolutely fascinating! 🌆 Its wooden beams and pillars have been leaning for 700 years without collapsing. From the second floor onward, the pillars tilt to one side, creating a stunning sight from within. The interior still houses traditional Hakka workshops where you can buy handmade ginger candy and take vintage-style photos with a historical vibe. 3. Hegui Lou The "First Wonder Tulou"! 💧 Built on a swamp yet as stable as a rock. Walking inside, you can experience the marvel of "a leaning building that doesn't collapse." The tulou contains a school, ancestral hall, and displays of Hakka farming tools. Climb to the top for a view of the surrounding rice fields—both healing and photogenic. 4. Taxia Village A "hidden gem village around tulou"! 🏞️ A stream runs through the village, with ancient bridges connecting tulou on both sides. In the evening, sit by the stream and enjoy Hakka cuisine—bamboo shoot braised pork and mugwort rice cakes are especially delicious. The Zhang Clan Ancestral Hall in the village features intricate carvings and paintings, and at night, the lanterns create a time-traveling atmosphere. 5. Hekeng Tulou Cluster The "Great Wall of Tulou" is incredibly majestic! 🗺️ Thirteen tulou are lined up along the mountain, resembling a giant dragon when viewed from the summit. With fewer tourists, it's more tranquil here. You can get up close to see Hakka elders weaving cloth and drying bamboo shoots, experiencing the authentic Hakka lifestyle.

🏯 Fujian Tulou Tulou aren't just buildings; they're living memories. In the mountains of Fujian, I walked into round and square rammed earth fortresses. I heard the sound of wind, incense, footsteps, and the whispers of our ancestors. Every door, every alley, every lantern here tells a story. And I simply listened quietly, then took note. -- 📷 "Circular Watch" | Yongding Hakka Tulou Standing before the thick rammed earth walls, I felt embraced by time. This circular Tulou isn't just a building; it's a family fortress and a container of memory. I lingered at the doorway for a long time, hearing the wind whispering an old story through the window. -- 📷 2. "Fireworks Behind the Door" | Incense Burner in the Tulou's Inner Courtyard The smoke slowly rises, like the breath of our ancestors. The teacup and incense burner on the stone table are rituals of life and a continuation of emotions. I'm not just visiting here; I'm participating—with the land, with the past, and with myself. -- 📷 3. "Words from the Red Walls" | Tulou Alleys and Spring Festival Couplets Red spring festival couplets are affixed to wooden doors, and lanterns sway gently in the wind. I gently touch the door, as if greeting an old friend. Every alley here speaks, if you're willing to listen. -- 📷 4. "Circular Watch" | Tulou and the Echoes of Memory Standing in the center of the courtyard, gazing up at the layers of wooden buildings and red lanterns, I feel as if I'm surrounded by time. This isn't a building, but a form of life. I believe every piece of earth, every beam, guards a sentiment that will never be forgotten. -- 📷 5. "Light in the Circle" | Tulou Corridor and Courtyard Sunlight streams down from the courtyard, illuminating the rammed earth walls and wooden beams. I walk through the corridor, hearing the sound of footsteps echoing through the space. This building isn't just round; it's alive and breathes. -- 🌿 Conclusion: > I thought I was traveling, but later realized I was actually returning home. > The Tulou lacks ornate decorations, only the depth of time and the warmth of human kindness. > If you find yourself here, please slow down and allow yourself to hear the stories that aren't being told in a hurry. -- #YongdingTulou #CulturalTravel #SlowTravelDiary #HakkaCulture #HeartofTulou #TripMoments

#TravelGuide 🐼 ＼ Recommended to save ／ Xiamen Trip Day 2 📍Xiamen, China Xiamen Travel Chronicles📍 Various Sightseeing and Foodie Experiences! -- 🟠Schedule 10:00 AM Taxi Departure 12:00-15:00 Tulou 1 (Fujian Tulou Nanjing Scenic Area) 15:30-17:00 Tulou 2 (Tianluokeng Tulou) 19:30 Dinner at Baichi (Dahaiyu) 🟠Fujian Tulou Nanjing Scenic Area 💸Coconut Milk Tea: NT$25 💸Admission: NT$90 (NT$10 per adult for the second floor and above) There are tulou areas scattered throughout the area, but let's start with the first one. The tulou area is about a two-hour taxi ride from Xiamen city. We'll be driving along country roads. This tulou area is famous for its windmill views, but due to the rain and muddy waters, the windmills weren't very pretty. There were two or three tulou here. One was square, and two were round. You could look inside all of them. The area around the tulou has become a tourist destination, with restaurants and souvenir shops. While this area is also worth seeing, I personally recommend the second tulou area! However, you can't go above the second floor in the second tulou area, but here you can explore the floors above for just 10 NTD. 🟠Tian Luokeng Tulou 💸Tickets: 90 NTD About a 30-minute taxi ride from the first tulou area leads to another famous tulou area. You'll climb a steep, winding mountain path. There's a large ticket booth just before the trail, so pay 90 NTD per adult there and continue on the trail. After climbing the mountain path, we first came to a photo spot overlooking the five tulou from the top of the mountain. Next, we took a taxi (or apparently you can walk there too) down the mountain and toured the inside of the tulou. This area features five tulou lined up, making it a popular photo spot. Not only are they photogenic, but these tulou have a more local and secluded feel, making them more enjoyable than the first one. However, unlike the first tulou area, you can't go above the second floor here. You can enter all five tulou. 🟠大海鱼 💸Dinner 305 NTD In the evening, like on the first day, we went to Eight Markets in Xiamen. A bustling street of food stalls reminiscent of a night market. We went in the afternoon on the first day, but the evening was lively and fun. We had dinner at a seafood restaurant a little further from Eight Markets. We ordered about five dishes for a fairly reasonable price of NT$305. Everything was delicious, but I especially recommend the sweet potato fried rice. The Thai rice was light and chewy, with a great texture. 🟠Yashi 💸Tsujingu (Red Root Fruit) - NT$8 After dinner, we strolled around the nearby Yashi. The night market was bustling with activity. I tried the fruit juice I saw so many people drinking. Tsujingu (Red Root Fruit) is apparently a fruit known by names like horned bitter melon and kiwano. Its distinctive jelly-like fruit and seeds are its distinctive features. The unique texture, pleasantly acidic taste, and perfect for a hot day were all enjoyable. ◎ --- ⚠️This post is time-delayed, so please check for the latest updates. 　2025/8#Xiamen #ChinaTrip
