If the Leaning Tower of Pisa amazes you, then the tilting Yuchanglou will surely attract you. From the outside, Yuchanglou doesn't seem much different from other tulou buildings, except that it is larger in scale. However, when you enter through the gate, you will find that its pillars are tilted - the third floor leans to the right, while the fourth floor leans to the left. You might want to scream and run away, but don't worry, it has stood here steadily for over 600 years. These tilted pillars, which have remained standing for centuries, not only bring visual shock to Yuchanglou, but also serve as evidence of its status as the oldest remaining tulou in Nanjing. However, the residents of Yuchanglou have not avoided the fate of turning their kitchens on the first floor into shops and stalls, selling homemade tea, snacks, and more. However, some kind and hospitable owners will offer visitors free tea tasting.

Ta Xiavillage, built along the creek, is known for its beautiful scenery. Whether it is the small blue brick buildings, the stone arch bridge crossing the creek, or the cobblestone paths in front of the houses, you can feel the charm of this typical Hakka village. The shape of the earthen buildings in the village is very diverse, including not only the common round and square ones, but also apron-shaped and ruler-shaped ones. What's even more unique is that there are two round earthen buildings at the bend of the meandering creek. If you spend 15 minutes climbing to the observation deck on the top of the hill, you will be able to see the panoramic view of the "Tai Chi" water village.

Deyuan Hall is located in Tiaxia village, Shuyang town, Nanjing County, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province. Tiaxia village is a typical Hakka village in China. There are two winding mountains here, stretching from south to north, embracing a vibrant gorge. The ancient trees in the mountains tower into the sky, lush in green. The bamboo forest is dense, reaching up to the sky. In the deep shade of the forest, a sense of tranquility floats in the air. The faint mist draws a few curved lines, highlighting the undulating eaves of the village, like a mirage. A winding creek runs through the gorge, flowing swiftly and the water is clear and blue. The pure and refreshing air evokes memories of bygone eras, tracing the footprints of history.
