Story
To promote awareness of heritage conservation in traditional villages, 13 alumni from the NUS Xiamen Overseas Chapter went to Houlong Central Primary School in Quangang, to give a talk and tour. The team, together with 30 students and teachers (including the principal), visited the Tukeng Village, the most well-preserved village along the maritime silk road in Quanzhou. “I often see such folk houses and architectures but I have never paid attention to the details of the structure and craftsmanship before. Today I learned to appreciate how very delicate, special and beautiful the architecture is.” – a Houlong Central Primary School student The team also brought books, NUS souvenirs and three sets of water purifiers for the school.
