"The tulou, or earthen buildings, are Guanyang's most distinctive cultural treasure," explains Zhang Haitao, head of Nanjing's bureau of culture, sports, and tourism. "These structures are both intricate and rustic."

In recent years, the village has found new ways to keep its traditions alive, reviving the interiors of these ancient buildings, and introducing public spaces that encourage community gathering.
