Huaan Dadi Tulou group

According to the rough statistics of Fujian Tulou, there are more than 3000 Tulou. Only 68 Tulou in Hua'an County exist. Although the number is small, Hua'an Tulou occupies a special and irreplaceable position in Fujian Tulou because of its distinctive regional characteristics and special historical value, artistic value and scientific value. 　　

"Eryilou" in Dadi village, Xiandu Township, Hua'an is a typical representative of Hua'an Tulou, a masterpiece of Fujian Tulou and a treasure of traditional Chinese dwellings. "Eryilou" is backed by Wugong mountain. The mountains meander into mountains and the trees are verdant. In front of the building, there are winding water and wide field of vision. There are Guishan crimes near and Jiufeng screens far away. The lion rock on the left side stretches forward and the Huxing mountain on the right side shrinks low, so Xuantian Pavilion is built to supplement geomantic omen and balance the left and right sides. Here, surrounded by beautiful mountains, abundant water, beautiful mountains and clear waters, wind and gas. The back mountain can block the cold wave, the face water can meet the cool wind, and the vegetation can protect the soil and water. The organic integration of earth building and environment constitutes an ideal ecological pattern. It is not only unique and beautiful landscape, but also convenient for production and life. It is really suitable for mountain, water and living. The plane layout of Fujian round building can be divided into inner corridor type and unit type. The unit earth buildings are concentrated in Pinghe, Zhaoan, Yunxiao, Zhangpu, Hua'an and other counties of Zhangzhou city. The vast majority of unit earth building is a single bay as an independent unit. The "eryilou" and "nanyanglou" in Dadi village of Hua'an are multi Bay units. There are ten four Bay units, one five bay unit and one three bay unit around "eryilou". Each unit has a separate entrance, a small patio and a separate staircase, forming a private space. The central courtyard is surrounded by the ring building, which serves as a public space shared by many households in the building. According to the modern concept analysis, there is no doubt that it has the best space privacy level, suitable for living. In addition to the defensive measures of ordinary earth buildings, the "hidden corridor" on the fourth floor is also rare in Fujian. As far as we know, except Nanyang building, only the round building "Lianfang building" in Xiazhai of Pinghe county and the square building "Wushi building" in Guzhu township of Yongding County have similar peripheral corridors. "Hidden corridor" not only makes each independent unit connected, but also facilitates shooting rescue in defense, which is undoubtedly the most ideal defense design. In addition, the use of sewers as a backup escape is rare in Fujian Tulou. The outer wall of Fujian Tulou is built with river pebbles or strips at the foot of the wall. Generally, the bottom wall is 1.1-1.5 meters thick. The outer wall of "eryilou" is built with granite block stone at the bottom. The wall is 2.5 meters thick, which is the thickest in Fujian.
