- Tibetan architecture has been very influenced by China and India. Many of their houses are typically built on elevated sites facing the south, so they are sunny, with a lot of windows to let in the sunlight. They are build with materials as rocks, wood, cement and earth.
- Jamaican houses can be heavenly, but there are also a lot of people who live in poor districts, with a lot of violence and poverty.
- I've found an example of a teacher who build her own mud house near a lake in Australia. I guess it's cheaper than any other house, and you can almost build it with your own hands, so you can choose easily every detail.
- Redcliffe is a peninsula in the north-east of Brisbane, the state capital of Queensland, Australia. Seemingly, is a popular tourist location, with several beaches, where residents of Brisbane seeks a place to relax.
- Surprisingly, there are still people living in caves in several countries. In fact I have found some amazing photos in Internet, about a chinese village entirely placed in a great cave, including their school. Take a look at them, it's worth it! (http://www.yousaytoo.com/kitty/cave-people/4544)

Actually the sort of houses in Tibet are very influence by Chinese people.
Many important buildings of Tibet had been destroyed at war.
The houses are build with straw and wood.

In Jamaica the houses in villages and jungle are build with straw and mud.
In towns the houses are very old.
There are many hygiene problems and it is one cause of dead in this city.

I don't know the reason for it but I presume that this houses are build in jungles and areas wityh many nature so there are less damage and it is tourist for many people.

It is a residential suburb of the Moreton Bay Regional Council in the north-east of the Redcliffe peninsula, in the state capital of Queensland, Australia. I like that the temperature is hot but I don't like the wind, there are much wind.

Yes. In Granada there are people that lives in caves. Some people are doing tourism, others people want to live there and the others have economic problems and They can't build a house.
