Our mission began with saving the historic structures of the local Dai and Bulang peoples. These ancient houses, built with profound vernacular wisdom, were fading.
Through meticulous conservation, we restored their timber frames, woven walls, and sacred geometry—preserving not just buildings, but a living architectural heritage.
The conserved Dai and Bulang houses
are now more than monuments; they
are reawakened spaces.
Where there was silence, there is now the gentle sound of life. Each restored detail—from the elevated floors to the soul of the thatched roof—breathes again, holding the memory of generations within its renewed form.
Today, this preserved heritage is your sanctuary. Step beyond observation into immersion.
To stay in these houses is to sleep within history, to feel the cool of traditional materials, and to connect with the rainforest through the very architecture shaped by it. Your retreat is a direct encounter with a conserved and living culture.

Ethnic architecture is not just a building; it is a culture's memory made physical. We preserve these structures to keep a people's story standing for generations to come.
