23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
《The Grand Event of Tulou》
The work was photographed on November 24, 2024, in Hekeng, Nanjing, Fujian. The tulou was decorated with lanterns and streamers for the annual grand event. This is a folk activity that has lasted for more than two hundred years - Zuoda Fu. The children and grandchildren who are away from home will return, and thousands of villagers gather in front of the tulou to pray for blessings, hoping for a bountiful harvest and favorable weather in the coming year.
