福建土楼是中国南部独特的建筑形式，被誉为“中国传统民居的瑰宝”，也是福建省重要的文化遗产和旅游景点之一。福建土楼产生于宋元时期，明末、清代、民国时期逐渐成熟，并一直延续至今。其中，永定土楼在2008年被列入《世界遗产名录》，成为世界上独一无二的建筑奇迹。

The Fujian Tulou is a unique architectural form in southern China, known as a "treasure of traditional Chinese dwellings" and an important cultural heritage and tourist attraction in Fujian Province. The Fujian Tulou originated during the Song and Yuan dynasties, matured during the late Ming, Qing, and Republic of China periods, and continues to exist to this day. Among them, the Yongding Tulou was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2008, recognized as a one-of-a-kind architectural marvel in the world.

福建土楼是以土作墙而建造起来的集体建筑，呈圆形、半圆形等形状，各具特色。土楼依山就势，布局合理，吸收了中国传统建筑规划的“风水”理念，适应聚族而居的生活和防御的要求。

The Fujian Tulou is a collective dwelling constructed with earth walls, often shaped in circles, semicircles, or other distinctive forms. These structures harmoniously follow the contours of the terrain, incorporating the traditional Chinese architectural concept of "feng shui" and meeting the lifestyle and defense needs of clan-based communities.

其实，田螺坑土楼群“四菜一汤”名字的由来，是因为其独特的布局和形状。从空中俯瞰，田螺坑土楼群由五座土楼组成，其中步云楼位于中心，其余四座环绕周围，分别呈现出方形、圆形和椭圆形，宛如一盘美味的“四菜一汤”。居民做饭时，炊烟会从圆环中心升起，更像是热气腾腾的美食。

The name "Four Dishes and One Soup" for the Tianluokeng Tulou cluster comes from its unique layout and shape. Viewed from above, the cluster comprises five tulou: the central Buyun Lou surrounded by four others in square, circular, and elliptical shapes. Together, they resemble a delightful meal of "Four Dishes and One Soup." When residents cook, smoke rises from the center, evoking the image of steaming hot dishes.
