About This Trip

This three-day itinerary includes both the World Heritage Site, the Fujian Tulou, and the must-see sights in Xiamen. To help you escape the commercial areas and tourist crowds, we have chosen three tulou clusters that embody the essence of the Fujian Tulou. You can get a real taste of Hakka and Minnan culture and way of life in this way. In addition to admiring the distinctive architecture, you can sense the Hakka people’s spirit embodied in the structures.

Itinerary

Your tour guide will be waiting for you in the arrival hall of the airport with a warm grin once your aircraft arrives. Take a private vehicle with a driver to get to your hotel. You may either sleep and recover in preparation for tomorrow’s tour, or use the remainder of the day to acclimate and explore the city.

After breakfast, your first stop will be the Tianluokeng Tulou Cluster. It consists of one square building and four rounded earthen structures. It is among the most exquisite and well preserved Hakka strongholds. The Yuchang Earthen Building is among the most ancient tulou still in use. The most notable feature of this five-story earthen structure is its skewed pillars. The most severe one has a 15-degree tilt to it. One of the six tulou clusters that make up the Fujian Tulou World Heritage Site is Hekeng Tulou Cluster. This true Hakka village is less frequented by tourists and is filled with variously shaped mud dwellings. In the film Mulan, it serves as Mulan’s “hometown”.

Next go to see Taxia Village, a characteristic Hakka village in Nanjing County situated in a valley. Like a local Hakka tea farmer, you may gather tea leaves at a nearby plantation from April to November and learn how to prepare them. The tea you prepare can travel with you. Additionally, you are able to sample some black tea that the nearby farmers have previously brewed.

Visit Hongkeng Tulou Cluster after breakfast. The majority of earthen construction types are found in the Hongkeng Tulou Cluster. The long, thin town has roughly a hundred mud dwellings of different sizes and designs. You will witness the palace and villa types in addition to the smallest round-shaped tulou, as well as the rectangular and round-shaped tulous.

You will be taken to the train station or airport after lunch.
