Origin: According to legend, in ancient times, there was a brave and kind young man named Paya Sammuti in the Dai family. He wants to build a house for the Dai family, so that they will no longer live in the wild. But he tried several times and failed. One day, it was raining heavily. He saw a puppy lying on the ground. It rained heavily, and the rain ran down the thick dog hair. Deeply inspired, he built a sloping shack.

Later, the phoenix flew in and waved to him to make the roof herringbone. Later, he motioned to Paya Samuti in a high-legged independent posture, asking him to build the house into a two-story high-legged house. Paya Sammuti built a beautiful bamboo building for Dai family according to Phoenix's wishes. Later, it was handed down from generation to generation and became a beautiful and distinctive Dai bamboo building.

The use of bamboo architecture:

The plane of the bamboo building is square, and there is no wall at the bottom, which is used for raising livestock and stacking sundries. There is a hall and bedroom upstairs, and there is a fire pit in the hall, which is a place to make tea and reunite with family. There is an open front porch and balcony outside. The front porch is the place where the host works, eats, rests and receives guests during the day. It's bright and airy.

The terrace is the place where the owner washes clothes, dries clothes, dries crops and stores water tanks. This corridor is an indispensable part of bamboo architecture. Such a bamboo building can prevent moisture, heat and ventilation, avoid insects and animals, and avoid floods. Because the rainfall here is concentrated every year, floods often occur, the downstairs is overhead, the walls are bamboo strips, and there are many gaps, so it is very conducive to the passage of floods.
