The settlement of Miao tribe is in the mountain area. There is a river in the center of the settlement and the river flows between houses. The houses of Miao tribe are different from the houses of Tu tribe and large in scale. The houses have always the upper story where they store cereals. The main entrance of the houses sets back to the center room which is called Tang in China. It is guessed that the form of the main entrance is related with the tails place, because the entrance of the upstairs place is constructed in the upper part of the main entrance.
