What are the characteristics of Dai bamboo building?

"Preventing bandits" is one of the characteristics of Hakka dwellings-round enclosed houses, and the main feature of "Daijia Bamboo House" is to prevent extreme heat and moisture (because most Dai people live in subtropical areas, "there are many bamboo houses and live by water"). Besides, its rooms are simple, spacious, chic and elegant.

The bamboo building of the Dai nationality is empty on all sides of the lower floor. Every morning, when the cows and horses come out of the cowshed, they will remove the feces, so that people living in the upper floors will not be smoked by the dirty air.

The furniture at home is very simple, and most of it is made of bamboo. All the tables, chairs, beds, boxes, cages and baskets are made of bamboo. Every family has simple quilts and tents, and occasionally blankets, lead iron, farm tools and pot knives imported from Myanmar are only used, which are rare and redundant. Pottery tools are also very common, and the patterns of water tanks are all local.
