    Xiamen – Yongding | Chengqilou & Chuxi Tulou Cluster

    Morning

    In the morning, your tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Xiamen and drive approximately 3 hours to Gaobei Village in Yongding County, one of the core areas of Fujian Tulou heritage.

    Upon arrival, visit Chengqilou, widely regarded as the masterpiece of Hakka tulou architecture. Built in 1709 during the Qing Dynasty, Chengqilou is a massive round earthen building featuring four concentric rings centered around an ancestral hall. Each level contains 72 rooms, and the structure once housed hundreds of clan members. Its ingenious layout reflects the Hakka people’s emphasis on family unity, defense, and communal living, making it one of the most photographed and studied tulous in China.

    Midday

    After the visit, drive about 20 minutes to Chuxi Village and enjoy a local Hakka lunch. The meal typically features hearty countryside dishes, showcasing traditional cooking methods and flavors passed down through generations.

    Afternoon

    Continue the tour to the Chuxi Tulou Cluster, a tranquil group of earthen buildings dating back to the Ming Dynasty. Nestled along the scenic Peach Blossom Stream, the cluster is embraced by green hills, terraced farmland, and bamboo groves. Compared with larger tulou sites, Chuxi offers a quieter and more authentic rural atmosphere, allowing visitors to appreciate the harmonious relationship between Hakka architecture and natural landscapes.

    Stroll through the village paths, admire the well-preserved tulous, and learn how generations of Hakka families adapted their architecture to the environment while maintaining strong clan traditions.

    After the tour, transfer back to Xiamen. Service ends.
