Our Tulou Hotel


Staying in a Tulou -what an once-in-a-lifetime experience. 2 nights plus 3 tulou-cooked meals for 2 people only cost a total of 30 dollars. The room had 2 beds, bedding, a small TV and a light. Everything else ‘you bring your own’ (towels, washcloths, toothbrush etc.) We shared a small “squatty potty” public bathroom with the rest of the floor but there were very few guests there those 2 nights. We had fresh vegetables and a freshly slaughtered chicken for dinner, rice porridge for breakfast and another similar meal the next night.
