What are the characteristics of Uygur folk houses in Xinjiang?

Xinjiang Uygur folk houses have several characteristics: First, thick earth walls and brick (or earth) domes are used. The doors and windows on the wall are decorated with fine lattices. Secondly, kang and stove are generally used indoors, and there are arched niches on the earth wall, and tapestries and carpets are used for interior decoration. Most of the contents are grapes, and the images are crystal clear and can be confused. The third is to set up a shed to dry raisins next to the house, and build a pattern of leaking rain with bricks (the dried grapes must be dry and well ventilated, but not directly dried). Fourthly, because the climate here is very different, and the sun is sometimes very hot, so we should build more yards and use big trees or trees to shade us, where we can enjoy the cool.
