- Fujian Tulou is a property of 46 buildings constructed between the 15th and 20th centuries over 120 km in south-west of Fujian province, inland from the Taiwan Strait. Set amongst rice, tea and tobacco fields the Tulou are earthen houses. Several storeys high, they are built along an inward-looking, circular or square floor plan as housing for up to 800 people each. They were built for defence purposes around a central open courtyard with only one entrance and windows to the outside only above the first floor. Housing a whole clan, the houses functioned as village units and were known as "a little kingdom for the family" or "bustling small city." They feature tall fortified mud walls capped by tiled roofs with wide over-hanging eaves. The most elaborate structures date back to the 17th and 18th centuries. The buildings were divided vertically between families with each disposing of two or three rooms on each floor. In contrast with their plain exterior, the inside of the tulou were built for comfort and were often highly decorated. They are inscribed as exceptional examples of a building tradition and function exemplifying a particular type of communal living and defensive organization, and, in terms of their harmonious relationship with their environment, an outstanding example of human settlement.

What a beautiful way to live. This day and age that big family connection, sadly, seems to have been lost. I can imagine that there would be little depression, if any, due to the feelings of belonging, acceptance and unity 👍
There is a coronavirus now :(
What a lovely way to live!
★Amazing Report Thank-you!
Love it
Great
one million thank you's for the heavy lifting
This is Hakka people house in Fujian Province.. Hakka people are not Fujianese
Sho Hakka means guests. And they’re northern ancestors came to the areas such as fujian. They are fujianese as they reside there. Like I’m from New York therefore I’m a New Yorker.
@@xwah5016 I don't think so! These are Hakka not Fujian who speak Minnam language!
@@pandabear153 nooo, fujianese is not a ethnicity or nationality lmaoooo. Hakka is an ethic, fujianese is a title like what province. In China, that’s what ppl say. “Where u from?” “Oh the south East, I’m fujianese” only mainland Chinese would understand
I would love to annoy my mother with this kind of question. My family lives in Fujian but in the city.
01:27 The tulou community wasn't a proto-Communist system. Please get your facts straights.Their incomes wasn't "combined" and "shared". Each Fujian contributed a portion of their money for the maintenance and upkeep of the tulou. Each tulou member held their own "apartment" property which was either passed down to their descendants or shared with another member of the tulou voluntarily. There wasn't a central totalitarian figure that assigned and appropriated the earnings of a tulou member.
Perseus Wong / I thing the whole world could benefit with more intergenerational community living! The people are attractive too.
