The Dongs live in villages of 20-30 households located near streams. There are also large villages of 700 households. Their houses, built of fir wood, are usually two or three stories high. Those located on steep slopes or riverbanks stand on stilts; people live on the upper floors, and the ground floor is reserved for domestic animals and firewood. In the old days, landlords and rich peasants dwelled in big houses with engraved beam and painted columns. Paths inside a village are paved with gravel, and there are fishponds in most villages. One lavish feature of Dong villages are drum towers. Meeting and celebrations are held in front of these towers, and the Dong people gather there to dance and make merry on New Year’s Day. The drum tower of Gaozhen Village in Guizhou province is especially elaborate. Standing 13 stories high, it is decorated with caved dragons, phoenixes, flowers and birds.
