In South China, you can find thousands of diaolou, Chinese “castles” that were mostly built by the Chinese diaspora in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Diaolou are known for their East-meets-West design, and in 2007 UNESCO recognized some diaolou villages in Kaiping as a World Heritage Site. Do you know which classic Chinese movie was filmed there?
