Itinerary

1. Anping Tree House

   Originally a warehouse for the Tait & Co. Merchant House during the 19th century, this site was abandoned for decades, allowing giant banyan trees to take over the structure. Today, it is a stunning example of nature reclaiming industrial architecture. The aerial walkways allow visitors to stroll through the massive roots and thick foliage that have literally become the walls and roof of the building. It offers a mysterious, mystical atmosphere that is a favorite for photographers and nature lovers.
