Description:

by Monika Subba

A house with CGI Sheet in Ghari Village. Most of the farmers build such houses in the villages especially in the southern foot hills of Bhutan. Only those who can afford can cover their house with CGI Sheet. Ohters who can't afford use dried hay to cover their roof. Some of the farmers build their walls out of cement, where as others build out of mud.
