What are the traditional houses in the Loess Plateau?

The traditional dwellings in the Loess Plateau are caves.

Cave dwelling is a unique folk house in the Loess Plateau, and it is also a physical witness to the development and evolution of human "cave dwelling". Cave buildings vary according to the terrain, including flat roofs, cliffs and patios. Flat-topped caves are built with adobe or masonry on the flat ground; Cliff-leaning cave dwelling is to level one side of the hillside vertically, and then dig and shape it on the plane; Courtyard cave, commonly known as courtyard cave, is to dig a pit 6-7 meters square on the flat ground, and then dig 8- 12 holes on the four walls of the pit to live in. Some kilns also dig small rotary kilns to store firewood, vegetables and other sundries to increase the use area. Adobe is often used in kilns to make kang for people to rest. The exit is a stepped passage from the cave in the corner of the cave to the ground for residents to enter and exit.
