bamboo huts
Simple jungle dwellings
Bamboo huts are simple dwellings constructed primarily from bamboo—a fast-growing grass with woody stems.
Common in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia and the Pacific, these structures use bamboo for framing, walls, and sometimes flooring, often with thatched roofs.
The phrase evokes rustic, traditional shelter: We stayed in bamboo huts on the beach.
