The tulou from textbooks actually exists in real life

Finally saw the Fujian Tulou from my schoolbooks! 🏮 The same divine circular buildings featured in "Big Fish & Begonia" - dream come true! The "Four Dishes and One Soup" tulou cluster in Zhangzhou's Tianluokeng looks like it walked straight out of a painting! Reality is 100 times more breathtaking than photos! These layered circular buildings hold centuries of living history, with every brick and tile whispering Hakka stories. 🌟 Must-do experiences: ✅ Admire the panoramic "Four Dishes and One Soup" view from the observation deck ✅ Buy souvenir fridge magnets and trinkets (grandmas here are super nice - bargaining welcome!) ✅ Chat with locals and hear fascinating tulou tales 📍 Location: Navigate to "Nanjing Tianluokeng Tulou Cluster" 🎫 Ticket: ¥90 (includes observation deck access) 🐶 Bonus: A friendly yellow dog might become your tour guide!

Fujian (Nanjing) Tulou Scenic Area

Nanjing Tulou, one of the most representative world cultural heritage sites in Fujian, is known as the "Eastern Castle". These magnificent round and square buildings have remained as solid as ever after a hundred years of wind and rain, and are a symbol of the wisdom and unity of the Hakka people. Walking into the Tulou is like traveling through time and space, feeling the strong human touch and traditional customs.
