Traditional antique village houses, Malaysia #29684785
Description
A photograph showing the beautiful rustic style architecture of two old traditional ethnic Malay stilt houses well designed for living in the tropics. Stilted houses are safe in flash floods common during the heavy downpours in monsoon period, and also prevents wild animals such as snakes to enter the house. Steep pointed roofs facilitate fast runoff of rain water in heavy rainy weather. Taken with garden setting, coconut trees in the background, and cat walking on the path.
