China: The only entrance into the Zhenchang Lou Hakka Tower near Hukeng, Yongding County, Fujian Province. The Hakka (Kejia in Mandarin; literally 'guest people') are Han Chinese who speak the Hakka language. Their distinctive earthen houses or tulou can be found in the borderland counties where Guangdong, Jiangxi and Fujian provinces meet. Communal entities, tulou are fortified against marauding bandits and generally made of compacted earth, bamboo, wood and stone. They contain many rooms on several storeys, so that several families can live together.
