田铺大塆
A well-preserved traditional village in southern Henan where old houses have been converted into bookshops, tea houses and guesthouses, known as a 'makers' town'.
Tianpu Dawan is in Tianpu Township, Xin County, and is a traditional Chinese village. Its grey-tiled, earthen-walled houses of southern Henan sit between hills and water in a complete layout. In recent years bookshops, creative studios, tea houses and guesthouses have moved in, and the village has come to be known as a 'makers' town'. The lotus pond and rice fields at the village entrance look picturesque in every season. Entry to the village is free, but it gets crowded on holidays, so arrive early. It can be combined with the hometown of General Xu Shiyou for a half-day or full-day trip, and the village has farmhouse restaurants and guesthouses for an overnight stay.
