There are two unique buildings in Guangdong, one is Kaiping Diaolou and the other is Hakka Enclosed House. The shape of the Hakka Enclosed House is like a bunker and a bird's nest. This kind of building is more in Meizhou. There are several places in Mei Hakka House, the most representative of which is Tai'an Building in Dapu County. This building was built in the 28th year of Qing Emperor Qianlong. It has a history of more than 250 years and can be preserved. Not easy, which also shows the rigor of ancient architecture. Other Hakka enclosures are usually round, while Tai'an is square. The main building materials are stone, wood and brick. Because the outer wall of the building is a stone wall, this building is also called a stone building. Tai'an Building is currently a key cultural relics protection unit. It is also a cultural tourism attraction developed by Dapu County. It is managed by a dedicated person and is well protected in all aspects. Visitors can not only walk on the ground floor, but also climb down the stairs. The second and third floors are panoramic views of God's vision. Taian Building has only one gate for access. If the gate is closed, outsiders cannot enter. The windows of the whole building are very small, which is mainly for the purpose of preventing thieves and preventing problems. Because the wall is thick and strong, the Taian Building has good wind, waterproof and shockproof performance. On the Taian Building, every picture you see in front of you is full of chronology, especially the aging window, as if you are silently telling history. There are more than 200 rooms in the entire Tai'an Building. Currently, only a few old people and children live in it. Most of the young people go out to make a living, or move to a more comfortable modern building.

Tai'an Building in Dabu

Located within Dabu County, the Tai'an Weilou was built during the Qing Dynasty and is a rare stone fortress in China. Its exterior is constructed of stone, earning it the nickname "Hakka's Water Cube." The design of the building is ingenious, featuring resistance to wind, water, earthquakes, and fire. The architectural style of Tai'an Weilou reflects the spirit of the Fujian Hakka people living together in harmony as a clan. The ground floor of Tai'an Weilou is for family housing, while the second and third floors feature exhibitions of Hakka architecture and intangible cultural heritage. Tai'an Weilou has an admission fee, is a 4A-level tourist attraction, and is a national key cultural relics protection unit. It is within walking distance from the county town to Tai'an Weilou.

When it comes to surrounding houses and earth buildings, many people think of Yongding and Nanjing in Fujian for the first time. In fact, Meizhou, which is a source of Hakka, also hides many well-preserved houses. The level of sophistication is no less than the former two. Tai'an Building, located in Longgang Village, Hutun Town, Dapu County is a classic representative of Meizhou's surrounding buildings. Tai'an Building was built in the 28th year of Qing Emperor Qianlong (AD 1764) and has a history of 253 years. The Fangshiweiwu building, which is extremely rare in the world, is called the Historical and Humanities Museum. Tai'an Building is a masonry structure, sitting northeast to southwest, 49 meters long, 52.6 meters wide, 11 meters high, divided into three floors. The housing is distributed in an orderly manner along the direction of the enclosure. Walking house is generally windproof, waterproof, shockproof and fireproof. Most of them have remained strong for hundreds of years. Take the Tai'an Building as an example. Although it has experienced 253 spring and autumn, it does not see the traces of damage. It is a miracle in the architectural world. There is only one gate in the Tai'an Building. There are patios, wells and ancestral halls in the building. The patio can be used for daylighting and for grain storage; the well is convenient for residents to use water and, if necessary, for firefighting; the temple is the place where the ancestors are worshipped. Since Tai'an Building has only one gate, and the walls are thicker and thicker, it can be protected from moisture and heat, and can be insulated and cool. Special architectural style makes the entire Tai'an Building a solid "military fortress", easy to defend and difficult to attack, anti-theft, anti-enemy powerful. Having said that, I can't help but think of many old war scenes. At that time, Taian Building was definitely a first-class command center.

Taian Building. This is a stone-built rectangular earth building. I didn't know that there was such a building before I set off. Sure enough, I went out to see more. Let's take a look at the Tai'an Building. Because it belongs to the masonry structure, it is relatively well preserved and sturdy. It is also because it is close to the urban area, so it can be preserved well, and still get visitors' visit revenue. Go inside, you will receive a deeper shock, the number of rooms upstairs is large, and the size is the same, one room is arranged like walking into the cabin. The front and back of the room have doors, and the rear door leads to a low, narrow corridor. There are small windows in the hallway and the door. Its like a ramp that doesnt see the head. Walking on the aisle, the door of a room was closed, the light was dark, and some rooms were filled with straw through the cracks, and some rooms were covered with dust and broken furniture. That atmosphere~
