Yongding District Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)

After 48 hours, you will see the Yongding Earth Building in Miyazaki's "Big Fish Sea Bream". After watching the big fish sea otter, I will go to see the real earth building. The director of "The Big Fish Begonia" said: "We should find the most mysterious building in China as much as possible to let people go to the state like ancient China." So I found the mysterious Fujian earth building. Local scenery The portraits and photos on the walls of the ancestral hall declare the fascination of the builders of the earth building, and hundreds of years later the earth buildings are ushered in daily, feeling that it is not only a step forward. The scenic spot is even more a home. tends to be plain and quiet, and sleep peacefully in the cockerel dog shit. Walk the life on the wind and frost trail.

There is no reinforced concrete here, there is no squatting crowd, there is a kind of sneak peek at the half-day leisure, the residents live peacefully, the chickens and ducks walk in the air, sit on the roots of the earthen walls, blow the sun, feel like they are living People here. There is a feeling after the return trip When the city's reinforced concrete separates the neighborhood's hotlines, the earthen building, which is much longer than the package building, can also be seen as a vivid epitome of the Chinese family tradition. About accommodation The Prince Hotel lived next to the Tulou. It is recommended to stay in the vicinity of the Tulou for one night. In the evening, the lights are brilliantly shaded. Summer and summer feel more beautiful than the daytime. It is simply the restoration of the real scene of "The Big Fish Sea Bream", and also the artistic conception of "Spirited Away". will bring items comfortable shoes, wear high heels on the soft stone road, you know.

A Hakka Tulou Museum without a gate.

In Fujian, I finally saw the scenes from 'Big Fish & Begonia.' When I was young, no one ever told me how to walk the path of adulthood, so I loved to seek traces of life during my travels. Maybe my life's photos are not just of people, but more of those unforgettable sceneries at first glance. I remember the weather that day, sometimes stormy, sometimes sunny. On the uphill road, a cute little yellow dog was guiding us. As we approached the Tulou, the first sight was not only shocking but also moving. I finally saw the scenes I loved from the anime, and finally came to the place where the admired creator, who has passed away, filmed and created. My wish in my heart was fulfilled. We went to Yongding Tulou. It's best to book tickets a day in advance for discounts. There is a viewing area that requires a short hike, so it's best to wear non-slip athletic shoes. At the top, you can see the four iconic round buildings of the 'Chuxi Tulou Cluster.' Moreover, Yongding Tulou is divided into three main types: Wufeng Lou, square buildings, and round buildings. Inside the Tulou, it feels very comfortable. The structure of Yongding Tulou better reflects the Hakka people's lifestyle of living together in the same building and their spirit of unity. In short, it's very suitable for a short holiday trip for special forces!

How to Choose Fujian Tulou? (Complete Guide Included)

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.

Chuxi Ancient Building Cluster

I have long wanted to visit the world-famous Fujian ancient buildings, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as a cluster in Yongding. After reading many travel guides, I finally chose Chuxi Ancient Building, for two reasons. First, it is the most convenient to drive to, and you can also see the sporadic ancient buildings along the way. Second, Chuxi Ancient Building has preserved the most original appearance of the ancient buildings. The key to this trip is to make sure to go up the mountain to the viewing platform, where you can see the full view of the ancient building cluster. If you go early, you can also see the curling smoke from the houses. The Yongding Tulou Cluster nestles against the mountains and is lush with greenery, facing south and north, arranged in an orderly fashion. The tens of thousands of Hakka earthen buildings stand in the mountains and fields, coexisting with heaven and earth, and are a masterpiece of the Hakka people in promoting the Central Plains culture, truly deserving of the title 'World Heritage'.

The true king of earth buildings

There are several earth building clusters in the Yongding Earth Building Scenic Area in Fujian, one of which is known as the king of earth buildings, because the Chengqi Building here is a larger earth building, and together with the Qiaofu Building, they form the King of Earth Buildings Scenic Area. Visiting the earth buildings is not only about seeing the unique architectural appearance, but also understanding the historical evolution. There are several advantages to the structure of the earth buildings; one is that it can resist the invasion of foreign enemies and bandits, the second is that it can enhance communication between neighbors, and the third is to ensure that there is enough sunlight to shine into the courtyard of the earth buildings.
