Why are the houses made of cardboard in Lima, the capital of Peru, not afraid of getting wet in the rain?

Because it has been almost 600 years since the founding of the Peruvian capital, and because it doesn’t rain all year round, people in some places here build houses without building roofs. Because building brick houses is more expensive, some people in the area use special materials to build cardboard houses. If privacy is not needed for family life, some of these local people would not even want to build a house, and they would not build a roof when building a house, because they can save some expenses.

When it comes to sleeping in the open air, many people have deep feelings about it. It is cold in winter and hot in summer. Especially when it comes to heavy rain, it can be life-threatening. However, because it has not rained here for nearly 600 years, the locals have no idea what jade is or what it feels like. Therefore, local people will choose to build houses with cardboard, because the materials for building houses, whether bricks or mud, are relatively expensive in Lima, the capital of Peru. Currently, only cardboard houses are relatively cheap. The editor feels that Peru is the only country that dares to build houses like this. No other country has such prerequisites. If a cardboard house is built, it will be washed away immediately when it rains.

The climate in Lima, the capital of Peru, is very comfortable, and the temperature is around 20 degrees all year round. Even in the hot summer, when we live in dire straits, the hottest temperature in Peru does not exceed 20 degrees. That said, the city, unlike where we live, is warm and comfortable all year round. This place belongs to South America, and there are many well-known buildings there. Because of these buildings, many locals come to visit here every year.

Speaking of no rain, many people must think that this place will be very dry, and that there is not even basic vegetation here. This is not the case, because the people of Lima attach great importance to the environment, so local people love green plants. You can see flowers planted by people everywhere on roads and courtyards. These flowers make the city look beautiful. There are also some couples who come here from overseas for vacation every year.

However, in the small city of Lima, the capital of Peru, it does not rain at all. However, according to statistics in recent years, the local rainfall does not exceed 15 millimeters every time. What is this concept? This means that even if it rains, the human body cannot feel it. The people living here don't feel affected at all by such rain.

Some people are curious about the fact that it has not rained in Peru for nearly 600 years, and they do not believe it. So I looked up the local development history, and finally found out that this is true! Peruvian history does record this event, and there may even have been more than 600 years without rain. However, because the local people protect nature relatively well, even if it doesn't rain, it will not have any impact on the lives of the local people.
