Sulawesi,
Tongkonan ist das traditionelle Ahnenhaus, rumah adat (indonesisch: traditionelles Haus) der Toraja, einem Volk auf der Insel Sulawesi, Indonesien. Tongkonans haben ein aus mehreren Bambusschichten bestehendes Dach in einer schiffsähnlichen Form. Wie für Indonesiens austronesische traditionelle Architektur typisch, werden Tongkonans auf Holzpfählen errichtet. Traditionell haben bei den Toraja nur die Adligen das Recht, Tongkonans zu bauen. Einfache Leute leben in kleineren und weniger aufwendigen Banua genannten Häusern.
Tongkonan is the traditional ancestral house, or rumah adat of the Torajan people, in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Tongkonan have a distinguishing boat-shaped and oversized saddleback roof. Like most of Indonesia’s Austronesian-based traditional architecture tongkonan are built on piles. The construction of tongkonan is laborious work and it is usually built with the help of all family members or friends. In the original Toraja society, only nobles had the right to build tongkonan.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Opposite the "dark corner" (picture in the first comment below), the "bright" corner of my yard has full sun. There is a continuous show of perennial flowers from early Spring to late summer. Bright yellow lilies start off, followed by yellow sedum. As they fade, the purple phlox emerge and stay all summer, and the yellow Black Eyed Susan join shortly after. A row of tall Helianthus in back will emerge in late summer.
The best part is that they are all perennials (no planting needed) : )
