The vernacular houses of the Limbu community are a reflection of their creativity, resourcefulness, and deep connection to the environment.
These homes, built using locally-sourced materials, serve not just as shelters, but also as communal spaces for cultural celebrations and community gatherings.The raised stilts, sloping roofs, and intricate wooden carvings create a warm and inviting atmosphere that encourages socialization and community-building. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, these homes represent the Limbu people's appreciation for their natural environment and their commitment to sustainability. They are a reminder of the power of art and culture to bring people together and create something greater than themselves.
