    Main Entrance to the UNESCO World Hertige site Fujian Yongding Tulou.

    These buildings are very impressive and worth visiting. This world heritage site is four buildings adjacent to each other. Three are currently open to the public. One is damaged and undergoing repair (as of May 2025). There are more such buildings in the vicinity, but these are the tourist focal point.


    Most westerns might know these earthen round buildings from the opening scenes in the Disney adaptation of Mulan - only that Mulan actually plays in the north of China where does buildings don’t exist.

    I guess many tourist (like us) do a day tour from Xiamen. If you organize a private tour by car it will take a little more than two hours. An organized group tour by bus will likely be 2.5~3 hours to reach Yongding.

    Tour guides offer their services at the main entrance, but chances for an English speaking guide are very slim …
