Kadallu house (mets') with square floor plan, pyramidal thatched roof, and a wall of dried brick and mud mortar with three square windows. The façade is plastered and decorated on the left with geometric paintings. In the background we can see another compound with a house in traditional style, with circular wattle-and-daub wall and conical thatched roof.
