Renovate Heritage Village

Nepal is a home to numerous historical settlements, with villages like Thehe in the remote hills of Simkot Rural Municipality, which hold architectural and cultural values. These sites offer invaluable insights into the past, which reflect unique traditional designs that have withstood the test of time. But it is concerning how can the country preserve its archaeological legacy without compromising the quality of life for its residents. The village, featuring closely located houses permitting movement between one roof and another, offers a view into Nepal’s vast architectural legacies. The buildings made of stones, rubble, wood, and straws have shown resistance to earthquakes because of their wooden reinforcements. Archaeologically, these settlements are living museums that illustrate century-old construction methods demonstrating their ancestors' wisdom.
