Dwellings in North India : (1) As there is less rain in Punjab and Haryana, most of the houses here have a flat rooftops. Houses in the cities are made of bricks and cement with better amenities.(2) There are wooden house in Jammu Kashmir and Ladakh. Many people in Dal lake in Kashmir
live in houseboats. (3) In Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, there are two-storeyed wooden houses. Cattle are kept in the basement so that their heat keeps the wooden first floor warmer. Such houses prove to be a relief at the time of snowfall. The houses here have slant roofs. Smooth rocks are placed on the rooftops so that the snow falling on the top of the roof would slide down easily. (4) Houses in the cities in Uttar Pradesh are made up of bricks and cement; while the houses in villages are made mostly of clay.
