Sheng wu lou (縄武楼) is one of my favorite tulous (Hakka earthen building)
among the Fujian tulou cluster (福建土楼) that I visited during this trip.

The whole architecture were ornate with beautiful wood cravings
but it’s really sad to see most of it in a really bad state now.
No one is living there now except an old couple.

The other Tulous (Hakka earthen buildings) that I visited during this trip
were quite well preserved but not this one.
I wonder why?

It’s such a waste to see such a beautiful architecture
became derelict over time…

Pictures of  Wu yi shan (武夷山) town area.

It’s really a small town with just a few streets.

I took these after my visit to the hospital, if you remember…

Wuyi shan town area

Everything is so red in this town.

I still have a lot of pictures to post on Hakka tulou (Hakka earthen building) but

I haven’t have time to get them organized yet.

I’ll get to it soon.
