(231002) -- TAIYUAN, Oct. 2, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This aerial photo taken on Sept. 26, 2023 shows a view of the Qikou ancient town of Linxian County, north China's Shanxi Province. Qikou, an ancient riverine town along the Yellow River, was an important trade ferry in history. However, with the development of land transportation, the Qikou ancient town declined in terms of trade volume, leaving many of its historical buildings in disrepair. In recent years, local authorities have carried out protection and restoration of historical buildings and ancient dwellings in the Qikou ancient town. At the same time, the integrated development of culture and tourism is also promoted. Today the ancient town has become a popular tourist attraction. More than 5,000 people out of a population of about 30,000 in the town are engaged in the tourism industry. (Photo by Liu Liangliang/Xinhua)

Tunpu means "fort" in Chinese, referring to the complex of residential buildings in villages of Anshun built in the style of fortress for resisting the enemy's attacks in ancient times. In the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), some troops were sent to Anshun, where they built villages and cultivated land for farming. Their descendants have lived there over generations with their original living customs preserved. Thus the unique Tunpu culture has taken shape. After more than 600 years, these stone-structured Tunpu residential buildings have endured and now become popular tourist destinations for many visitors. Photo by Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM/Ou Dongqu)
