Over
Korte feiten: The inhabitants live in wooden houses built directly on the water, supported by stilts and united with the families of nine different tribes. The longest platform on stilts is nearly 100 meters long and connects parts of several tribal villages.
Hoogtepunten: One truly special detail is that the houses are connected across generations, with some families having lived there for over 150 years. Additionally, traditions and tribal heritage are carefully preserved, which is evident in both fishing methods and handicraft skills.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes, because the entire village is on a wooden boardwalk.
- You get the best photos in the afternoon, when the sun illuminates the floors and the warm tone of the wood.
- Avoid weekends to avoid the buildup of larger tourist crowds.
- Try local handmade items in small shops, they are more authentic than market stalls.
