Fujian is a province on the southeast coast of mainland China. Fujian is bordered by Zhejiang to the north, Jiangxi to the west and Guangdong to the south. Taiwan lies to the east, across the Taiwan Strait.

Fujian Tulou 福建土楼; is a type of Chinese rural dwellings of the Hakka people in the mountainous areas in Fujian, China.
A tulou is usually a large, enclosed and fortified earth building, most commonly rectangular or circular in configuration, with very thick load-bearing rammed earth walls between three and five stories high and housing up to 80 families. (Wikipedia)

Remarkable and very enriching visit of this great, insufficiently known, region of China, and of its fantastic architectures. Your Fujian gallery is superbly composed by impeccable and evocative images with a great sense of place. Voted.

Great images, Richard! Voted! The tulous are very interesting. I have never been to Fujian although technically, I am a third-generation Fujianese born abroad. Not only I, even my father lost all the ties since my grand father died young.
