Cave Dwellings in Luoyang People in villages on the Loess Plateau in Luoyang have been living in caves since ancient times. Cave dwellings around a courtyard are very interesting scenes. Having selected a good place, the local people would dig a 100-sq-meter pit; dig some caves at the four sides, a tunnel leading to the ground at one side and a well in the center of the pit and build up low walls at the four sides. The courtyard cave dwelling is warm in winter, cool in summer and rain and wind proof. The pits of different families are close to each other. It is not clear how many people live in caves these days but there is a large number because this unique residential architecture is widely used and scattered everywhere outside the cities in this region. When you are at the boundary line of the village, you will be surprised to hear cocks crow and dogs bark because you won't see any houses and people. If you come to Luoyang, remember to visit the cave dwelling in the countryside and enjoy a completely different world.
