About Hui'an
Administratively, Hui'an is a county in Quanzhou prefecture, and the term "Hui'an" can refer either to the entire county or to the county seat (officially known as Luocheng Town 螺城镇). The area is a mixture or urban and rural. County population is around a million, and about 300,000 of those are in the main town. Hui'an County is famous for the peculiar way the locals would traditionally build their houses: instead of using bricks and tiles (like most of China), adobe (as can be seen, for example, in thetulou countryin south-western Fujian), or irregularly shaped stones, Hui'an builders would use long, narrow rectangular blocks of locally mined granite. Both building walls and its roof could be constructed out of such blocks; in addition, similar stone blocks would be used to build storage
