Brief introduction to the characteristics of Mongolian yurts

Brief introduction of Mongolian yurt characteristics:

Mongolian yurt is a kind of house where Mongolian herders live. Convenient construction and relocation, suitable for animal husbandry production and nomadic life. The yurt has a circular spire, and the top and periphery are covered with a thick layer or two of felt.

Ordinary yurts have a top height of 10- 15 feet, a wall height of about 50 feet, and a door facing south or southeast. The four main structures in the bag are Hana, skylight, rafters and doors.

Mongolian yurts are divided into four, six, eight, 10, 12 hanas and 12 hanas.

It is rare on the grassland, covering an area of more than 600 square meters, and looks like a castle from a distance. In the past, dozens of such big yurts got together, which was very spectacular.

Extended data:

The yurt is made of thin wooden poles about 2 meters long, which can be extended and contracted. Several nets are connected with the door to form a circular wall frame, and about 60 pillars called Wuni are connected with the top ring to form an umbrella-shaped skeleton at the top of the yurt.

Herdsmen tied the parts firmly together with leather ropes and sideburns, and then hung wool-woven blankets inside and outside to seal them, and a beautiful yurt was built.

It can be said that it is a very expressive creation with the simplest technique, the most material-saving technology. Mongolian herders must constantly migrate with the water source pasture, and the structural characteristics of Mongolian yurts are completely adapted to this nomadic life.

The connection of all parts is exquisite and convenient, easy to build, disassemble and transport, beautiful and practical. When the snow comes, there is no snow on the bag, and when it is washed away by heavy rain, there is no water on the bag. The circular structure can also resist storms.

The thickness of felt can increase or decrease with the change of seasons. The blanket at the bottom can be rolled up for ventilation in hot weather. The white surface is also decorated with wishful patterns made of red, blue and yellow fabrics. It fully embodies the unity of functional requirements and aesthetic requirements.
