Quaint heritage homes


Hakka hallmark: The interior of a building designed based on tulou architecture in the ancient town of Luodai in Sichuan province.

The famous tulou, which has put Hakka architecture and culture on the world map when a cluster of the homes in Fujian province was inscribed in 2008 by Unesco as a World Heritage Site, is now a new landmark in the ancient town of Luodai in Sichuan province.

AT first sight, the earthen building in the ancient town of Luodai, about 20km from Chengdu in Sichuan province, looks like the historical tulou dwelling of the Hakka community in Fujian province.
