This is the exterior look of the normal houses in water village.
这是一般水上村的房屋外形。
The walkway here is about 1-2 meters width without handrails. Sometimes we have to give way to the motorbikes. I felt scary to walk when the motorbikes passed by me.
这里的走道大约一到两米宽，没有扶手，有时还得让路给摩托车行走，不是这里的居民，走起路来真的有点战战兢兢。
Most of houses have long walkway at the entrance.

Their toilets are open air and toilet flushes directly into the swamp. It is retaining the original architectural features.
