You think castles are only in the West? In Dingnan Hakka Ancient Town at the southernmost tip of Jiangxi, magnificent Hakka walled villages stand as family fortresses of the East! Visiting here in winter not only helps you avoid crowds and quietly appreciate architectural beauty but also allows you to deeply engage in Hakka winter farming activities and lively New Year customs, giving your kids a century-crossing Hakka life experience. 🏯 Winter in Dingnan: Warmth and Vitality Inside the Walled Villages Best time for architectural aesthetics: Winter sunlight slants, casting rich layers of light and shadow on the earth-yellow or bluish-gray exterior walls of the walled villages, perfect for photography. The dry air is also ideal for hiking exploration. Highly participatory off-season farming period: This is the time for making Hakka hot skin noodles, glutinous rice cakes, and preserved meats. Visitors have the chance to personally join in the making of these traditional delicacies. Growing festive atmosphere: As the Spring Festival approaches, the ancient town and surrounding villages start decorating with lanterns and couplets, allowing you to feel the authentic Hakka New Year spirit. 🗓️ Two-day, one-night "Little Hakka" Experience Itinerary Day 1: Arrival and Initial Exploration of the Walled Village Afternoon: Arrive in Dingnan County, recommended to stay in a characteristic guesthouse or hotel near the county town or ancient town. After a short rest, head to the core area of Dingnan Hakka Ancient Town (Mingyuandi Walled Village). No need to rush inside; first walk around the huge square walled village to feel its castle-like defensive grandeur. Evening: Enter the walled village and visit the layout of the nine wells and eighteen halls. Count the courtyards with your kids and guess the purpose of each room (living room, kitchen, schoolroom, granary, etc.). At the ancestral hall inside the walled village, learn about the Hakka tradition of ancestor worship and clan harmony. Night: Taste authentic Hakka cuisine, must-try dishes include Dingnan sour wine duck, stuffed tofu, and gray water rice cakes. Listen to locals share stories about the construction of the walled village and family migrations. Day 2: Farming Culture and Countryside Fun Morning: Visit the rural complex or Hakka farm around the ancient town. Depending on the season, you can pick navel oranges, dig water chestnuts, or learn plowing and vegetable planting (simulated experience), helping kids understand the Hakka value of "farming and studying to pass down the family." Afternoon: Participate in a Hakka craft workshop. You can learn to make Hakka hot skin noodles (from grinding rice batter to steaming) or try weaving a simple bamboo item. Then head to nearby Buyi Valley or Jiuqu Resort for a leisurely walk amid mountains and waters. Evening: Return home satisfied with the food and souvenirs you made by hand. 🛖 Accommodation Recommendations: From Walled Village Ambiance to Modern Comfort Dingnan Taohuayuan (Top choice for ambiance): Not actually inside the ancient town, but its design fully integrates Hakka walled village elements and the Taohuayuan (Peach Blossom Spring) concept. The tranquil environment makes it a high-quality resort, conveniently reachable by car to the ancient town. Ganzhou Walton Royal Garden Hotel (High-end choice in the county town): Located in Dingnan County town, it sets the standard for local accommodations with international brand service and complete facilities, suitable for families with higher lodging quality demands. Qianxin Town Jingxin Lake Guesthouse (Luxury mountain forest choice): Located in neighboring Longnan County’s Qianxin Town, standalone villas scattered among tea mountains and bamboo seas offer excellent privacy. Experience Hakka lei tea and oil pressing here for an upgraded cultural immersion. Anyuan Sanbaishan Hot Spring Resort Hotel (Warmth choice): If you want to end your trip with hot springs, drive to Anyuan County. This hotel relies on a national forest park and natural hot springs, allowing the whole family to fully relax after exploring culture. 👨‍👩‍👧 Family Interaction and Helpful Tips Clothing and gear: Gannan mountainous area is damp and cold in winter, and the walled villages feel even cooler inside. Prepare enough warm underwear and windproof jackets for kids. Shoes must be slip-resistant as the walled village floors are mostly stone slabs. Safety: Stairs in the walled villages may be steep and narrow, so watch children carefully. Some old buildings have high thresholds, so mind your step. Cultural etiquette: Many areas of the walled villages are still inhabited. Please keep quiet during visits and do not enter areas marked as private residences. Always ask permission before photographing people. Food exploration: Hakka cuisine tends to be savory and salty; you can request less salt when ordering. Snacks like hot skin noodles and rice cakes are very kid-friendly. Transportation tips: Dingnan is accessible by high-speed rail, and renting a car after arriving by train or driving yourself is convenient. For visiting surrounding villages, self-driving is the best choice. Dingnan Hakka Ancient Town is a family epic written in earth, wood, and stone. Here, children can directly experience what "community living" and "heritage" mean. This winter, bring them to stay in an Eastern castle and be a Hakka for a day.

#celebrateit Taking my parents to Táoyuán lè jìng to celebrate their wedding anniversary was a sudden idea as I knew they never went to lover bridge. Isn’t putting a lock in the lover bridge a must do for a couple? Ok. Let me build this memory for them. We bought a lock and went to the lover’s lock bridge there. But it surprised us as we cannot find any locks there🫣 My parent was laughing at me when they saw no lock in the bridge. They finally didn’t put the lock there but we have a walk in Táoyuán lè jìng. The environment there was nice and quiet. We like it but don’t go to the lover bridge there🤣 #travel #weddinganniversay #Dingnan

☀In the mountains of Lingnan, there is a resilient ethnic group—the Hakka people! They have lived here for generations, writing an immortal chapter with their sweat and wisdom. 🙋Did you know? During the Ming Dynasty, to resist bandits, Dingnan County was established here, and a solid city wall was built to protect the peace of this land! 🔥However, in 1927, a sudden fire forced the county seat to relocate. 🍄But admirably, some Hakka people did not give up on this land. They chose to stay and rebuild their homes with their own hands. Thus, today's Dingnan Ancient City was reborn from the ruins! 👭Walking into Dingnan Ancient City is like traveling back to that distant era.
