What are the distinctive buildings in southern Fujian?

There are quite a lot of buildings with Minnan characteristics, such as red brick ancient buildings, earth castles, hanging temples, etc., with distinctive features and a long history.

1, red brick ancient building, red brick ancient building is one of the four major residential buildings in Fujian Province. Located in the coastal counties and cities of southern Fujian and central Fujian, it is red brick and white stone foundation, with slightly warped dovetail ridges at both ends of the middle depression. Stone carvings and wood carvings are beautifully decorated, gorgeous and classical, and large-scale, much like palaces and temples. Its red brick residential district contains profound architectural art and cultural connotation and is known as the symbol of traditional architecture in southern Fujian.

2. Hanging Temple, Yongtai Hanging Temple, also known as Yan Guang Temple, was expanded into a temple in the Ming and Song Dynasties. The cave is hidden in rocks, with huge stones as tiles and strange structure. /kloc-more than 0/00 Chinese fir trees crisscross, supporting the front of the cliff, backed by thousands of schists, facing a valley hundreds of feet deep, like an attic in the air.

3. An Liang Bao Tu Bao in Datian, Fujian Province is said to be a building built by a Taoist priest in Qing Dynasty. This fortress was built during the Jiaqing period and took five years to complete. This unique earthen fort is different from other earthen castles in terms of its unique defense and unique living form. It entered the heavy castle gate, facing the upper and lower groups of three-room halls. The left and right walls along the gate are stairs cut with large pieces of gravel, which lead to the left and right stairs at the top of the fort, which is completely different from the parallel racehorse building seen in the past. The hall standing on the central axis looks out and has a panoramic view on three sides.

Main distribution of red brick buildings in southern Fujian

Mainly distributed in Quanzhou, Xiamen, Zhangzhou, Putian and other places in Fujian Province, with Jinmen being the most concentrated in Taiwan Province Province. There are not many tulou in Quanzhou, which are mainly distributed in Dehua, Yongchun, Anxi and other inland counties, and some coastal counties. In addition to earth buildings, there are also wooden buildings, bamboo buildings and diaojiao buildings in Quanzhou, which are mainly distributed in places rich in bamboo and wood resources such as Yongchun and Dehua.

Quanzhou Tulou was basically built in the Qing Dynasty. In its architectural appearance, the deepest impression is that it is closed and defensive, especially the latter. Many earth buildings have watchtowers and shooting holes, and the walls and gates are very thick. Not only should they be sealed with iron sheets, but also a sink should be placed above the door to prevent fire. This reminds people of the historical background of frequent wars and bandits during the formation of tulou dwellings. On the other hand, as far as the internal structure of the earth building is concerned, people feel a kind of relative openness confined in a closed circle, at least in terms of the privacy of every family's daily life, which is not as good as the small house of one household in the village settlement mode. The collective consciousness of Tulou residents is very strong. They are in the same boat, sharing weal and woe. In the war, tulou is a fighting collective.
