Man this is a beautiful post. The right amount history, nostalgia and writing skills.
I had no idea of the logging history of Thailand or how it cam to be. Nor the fact that it so progressive that it supported and was the reason for the region to prosper. A thousand years from now people will talk about the the stone structures of the region but the wooden structures would be lost to the elements and the time. It is necessary to preserve all that we can and pass it on to the next generation.
Most of Kudos to the people who have maintained the houses for this long. Both houses - 'The Great House of Louis' and 'The House of Many Pillars' look really beautiful but somehow the charm of the Louis house is really spell bounding to me.
Yes, wooden homes is now a lost art and I was greatly impressed to see a town full of wooden homes. Thanks for coming by and hope you have a fabulous week.
"Appreciate you traveling with us..."
Wishing you the best, @adsactly & @stewsak
