Avoid peak times when visiting the Zhangzhou Tulou. Timing is everything.

Without the hustle and bustle of the National Day holiday, I prefer the Zhangzhou Tulou at this time of year. 🌾 - The rice fields have been harvested, and there are few tourists at the Tulou and ancient villages. The locals are warm and hospitable, and this is the best time to savor the beauty of intangible cultural heritage. - This trip included the Zhangzhou Tianluokeng Tulou and Hekeng Tulou, which can be done in two days and one night. If you're short on time, just visit the Tianluokeng Tulou. - 1⃣ Arrive at Tianluokeng at noon on the first day. Before entering the Tulou, take a few photos at the viewing platform, then head to Taxia Village and check into a local guesthouse. The off-season offers great value for money, and you can return to nature and find yourself here. 🛏 - 2⃣ Wake up naturally on the second day. After breakfast, visit the ancient street. The street is small, and it's mainly for taking photos. You can also pick persimmons on the hill behind the guesthouse. There are some wild persimmon trees on the hills around the village. Then, enjoy a hearty meal at a restaurant. 🥘 - ⚠ The biggest advantage of traveling off-peak is that there are fewer people, and accommodation is heavily discounted. You can relax and enjoy your visit. ⚠ It's best to drive to the Tulou, as public transport is inconvenient. There are charging stations in Taxia Village.
