Nicobari Huts




Nicobari Huts are very beautiful and have unique architecture. The Nicobarese build these huts in circular shape, with a high thatched roof of grass and palm leaves. The huts are raised on piles about five to seven feet above the ground. The floor is big and round, made of small sticks, leaving tiny space in between two sticks. The cane floor allows the passage of air, and there is an overall air-conditioned effect.
