Taxia Village is the main commercial site in this Tulou stretch. Along the river are hotels, hostels, restaurants and bars. Love the water rushing and flowing, have not seen ducks for quite some time, nice walk during the evening. Love the bar 晓食堂 Xiaoshitang with their local alcohol.

We stayed here during our two night exploration of Toulu round houses. The concept of this round houses are simply great. We experienced the over night stay in one.

Amazing experience!! It was such nice weather in the mountains going to visit the tulous, a unique feature to the area. A must do experience! Ta'xia is a very peaceful village with a picturesque river that runs through it. The locals are also friendly and welcoming. An interesting experience with food, if adventurous, perfect place for you!

It is a tiny village nestled in valleys in between tulous, making it the perfect rest place after a day in the mountain climbing up and down the tulous. Not much to see in the village itself. The evening stroll along the river (which is only about 1km) is the highlight. Basically, just chill and relax.
After 8pm there really isn't much to do here. Restaurant options are very limited. I can see more hotels being built so the area may become a bit more commercialized soon.
A bus that connects to Nanjing passes through here.
The river running across the village makes it all the more beautiful.

We came here as part of a walking tour offered by Tsing Pu Retreat and had a great time taking in the sights and sounds of the village. A must-visit if you are interested in seeing tulous and understanding the history behind the Hakka community.

I enjoyed strolling through Taxia Village. It’s history is interesting, and it is scenic. There is a river that runs through it, and the restaurant beside the river serves great food, although I did not know the name of the restaurant.

We visited here as part of our visit to Tianluokeng and the Yunchang tulou. We left our bus at a carpark and then walked about 1 km along the river to the village. It's a small village with some tulou, restaurants and shops selling tea and other local products. To return to the visitor centre by bus, we went back along the river to the same car park. It's well worth a visit and allows a glimpse into life in rural China. Hopefully this village retains its charm and doesn't become over-commercialised.

Taxia is a village located about 7 km from Tianloukeng.
The village was built during Ming Dynasty (600-700 years ago) by the Zhang family. An ancestral hall - De Yuan Tang, a 10 min climb from a bridge, remembers some of the prominent family members.
Stone bridges, waterwheel, traditional housing including some round Tulous make the town picturesque and quiet. A river runs through it. There are also some modern housing now.
Taxia is a convenient place to stay. It has several tulous converted to hotels.

Cosy village, worth a visit if you’re invested in the tulous
How to get here:
To get to some of the tulous without chartering a car:
Take shuttle bus 6 from the Nanjing high speed train station (use the toilet here rather than at the bus station ;-) to the bus station in Nanjing town. From there you take a bus, also a bus nr 6 but a different one, to the tourist distribution centre. You will already drive past several tulous before you get there. From the distribution centre you have several options, a.o. A and B:
Route A (Tiánluókēng cluster, including some viewpoints, Yùchāng Lóu and Taxia village)
Taxia is on route A. On this route different tourist buses connect several sights, meaning you have to take out your luggage and carry it around the sights you are visiting because there is no place to leave it during your visit. For the viewpoints that’s not such a problem, but it’s especially annoying at Yùchāng Lóu, that’s why I walked back there from Taxia later (3 km one way). If I would do this part again, I would leave my big bag at the tourist centre and just take a small backpack with me on the A route buses.

Our China Dicovery - Chengdu Bamboo International Tours Co. Ltd tour guide 徐晨悧 and professionsl drive 冉彬彬 brought us to this pretty little village. This is a traditional village where you can see traditional old building, water mill, etc. We took a good stroll through the village and went into one of the Tu Lou that is now transformed to "hotel". Don't rush through your journey, take your time to admire the beauty.
