Folk Village

A folk village is a cultural site that preserves and showcases the traditional way of life, architecture, crafts, and customs of a specific regional community. Often open to the public, it offers visitors an immersive experience of historical lifestyles, allowing them to see preserved homes, tools, clothing, and performances rooted in local heritage. Folk villages serve educational and cultural preservation purposes, helping people understand and appreciate the history and diversity of a region’s cultural identity. They can be reconstructed or preserved areas that celebrate a community’s traditional way of living.
