Common Questions Travelers Ask Us
You can stay in an original tulou and experience the simple Hakka atmosphere and hospitality of the Hakka people. We have arranged an overnight stay in an original tulou during our 3-Day Essence of Xiamen and In-Depth Tulou Tour for you to enjoy the Hakka atmosphere. Spending one night in a tulou village is a good idea to avoid the tourist crowds. The villages are quiet and more authentic before the tourists arrive in the morning and after they leave in the afternoon.
Recommended hotels:
- Nanjing Qingdelou Inn (original tulou hotel)
- Tsingpu Tulou Retreat (boutique hotel in a restored tulou)
