Peaceful Villages

Before entered the Annapurna Sanctuary, we had to pass through many villages. We had seen the daily life of villagers, they are self supplied sufficient; they grown vegetable and crop for their food; fire wood for cooking, timber and stone for building houses are all get from the mountains and forest. No much luxury things, but the villagers live satisfactory and happily.

Houses are built in the golden wheat field, in the vegetable farm, and at the cliff of the valley which look like a holiday villa. The double story houses are built everywhere on the slopes, people have to walk up and down the slope everyday to go to the farm and town, hence fatty you see in there are mostly trekkers from outside.
Stone get from the mountains are their main construction material. The double story house are built by stone from the wall up to the roof top. The terraced field, the path and steps are all built from stones.
