Inside China’s Hidden Cave Homes
Did you know that around 30 million people in China still live in caves?
These cave dwellings are called yaodongs, and they’re especially common in the Loess Plateau—a dry, hilly region in northern China. These homes are dug into soft soil cliffs or built into pits with arched ceilings. No fancy materials, just earth. But here’s the thing—they work. The climate is dry, so people don’t worry much about flooding or drainage. It rains very little there. The caves stay warm in winter and cool in summer, no aircon needed. And since they’re carved straight from the ground, they cost way less to build. Some have been around for generations, while others are updated with modern touches—like lighting, plumbing, even flat-screen TVs.
It’s not just surviving—it's smart, low-cost living that fits the land.
So—would you live underground if it saved you money and kept you comfortable?
