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'.
