Bhungas

Bhungas are traditional round mud houses primarily found in the Kutch region of Gujarat, India. They are constructed using a mixture of clay, straw, and animal dung, which provides insulation from extreme temperatures. The design features a circular shape with a domed roof, allowing for efficient airflow and natural cooling. Bhungas are often decorated with vibrant traditional art, reflecting the cultural heritage of the area. These structures are well-adapted to local environmental conditions and have become symbolic of the region’s architectural identity and craftsmanship.
