Day 2 Nanjing Tulou Photo Tour (TianluokengTulou – Yuchanglou – Shunyulou – HekengTulou )
After breakfast, you start our journey of exploring the earth buildings. You first visit Tianloukeng (literally “Snail Pit” Village) Earthen Building Cluster, a national protected cultural site inhabited by hundreds of Hakka people of Wong family. Tianloukeng consists of five tulous with a square “BuYunLou” at the center, surrounded by three rotundas tulous and an oval tulou, forming a pattern of “four dishes and a soup” . This is one of the most magnificent and well-preserved Hakka castle in the area.
Next, visit Yuchanglou , a five-storey Tulou built in 1308 Yuan dynasty by the Liu family clan and is one of the oldest existing tulou. Yuchanglou has been nicknamed the for its tilted pillars that zigzags left and right. It was built that way due to an error measuring the building materials. In spite of this apparent infirmity, this tall tulou withstood 700 years of natural elements and social turmoil.
After lunch, visit Shunyulou , a circular four-storey building with just one ring. Built in 1945 by Zhang family, it has the longest outer diameter (74.1m), among the single donut-type Tulou houses with an inner corridor.
