How do people live in the coldest place in the world?

Oymyakon, located in Siberia in eastern Russia, is the coldest permanent residence in the world. In winter, the temperature here can often drop below MINUS 50 degrees Celsius, and even reach MINUS 70 degrees in the coldest time. It is called the "cold pole" of the world. Every winter, the residents here are still covered with thick eyebrows and eyelashes. You will never feel cold when you see the village of Oymyakon, or you will shudder when you see the village of Oymyakon. Humans have always been very interested in extreme things, and the village of Oymyakon is the coldest place in the world where humans have lived for a long time.

Because of the extremely cold climate, there is almost no grass here and crops can't grow at all. It's too far from the city and the roads are too dangerous to replenish food here. Therefore, villagers in Oymyakang mainly eat some meat products, such as fish, reindeer and horses.

The house in Oymyakon village is very special. They are built on wooden stakes buried deep underground, and the distance between the houses and the ground is at least 1 m. They can't be built directly on the frozen soil, otherwise the indoor hot air will freeze the frozen soil and cause the house to collapse. However, the building is very strong and thick, with four or five floors of doors and windows, just to avoid the invasion of cold air. You may be surprised to see the water pipes in Oyimiakang village on the ground, but it is useless to bury them underground here, so laying them on the ground and setting up heating stations along the way can ensure the water circulation in the pipes.
