Why do Hani people live in mushroom houses? What's Hani Mushroom House like?

The mushroom house built by Hani people has become one of the national characteristics. The main reason why this person chooses to build houses like mushrooms is that they can better adapt to the local climate.

First of all, the Hani people in China are mainly distributed in Yunnan, where the climate is hot and humid. Before the Hani people invented the mushroom-shaped houses, they all lived in caves, but the conditions at that time caused great inconvenience to people's lives. With the development of Hani nationality, people saw the shape of mushrooms and got some inspiration. They built mushrooms according to their shapes. And in the continuous development, the construction of mushroom house is becoming more and more perfect, and the mushroom house is built halfway up the mountain. It not only improves the present situation of people living in caves in the past, but also ensures that mushroom houses are warm in winter and cool in summer. Until now, in the place where Hani people live, we can still see the Shanzhai of Hani people, which is as distinctive as mushrooms in the mountains.

Secondly, the building materials used by Hani people to build mushroom houses are mainly local characteristics. It is made of clay and bamboo. When building a mushroom house, we will choose some earth and stone as wall materials, while the roof will use thatched and bamboo woven frames. At the same time, mushroom houses are mostly built halfway up the mountain. The shape of the roof is also unique, generally with four inclined planes, which can also prevent rainwater from gathering. The internal structure of the mushroom house is very exquisite, with randomly scattered floors. The place where people live is separated from the place where livestock live with wooden boards, and cooking can also be done in the house, which is very practical.

Now the Hani nationality still retains this ancient building, which has national characteristics. This mushroom-shaped building contains the wisdom of the Hani people.
