Why Traditional Chinese Houses Have Attics (Renovating My Ancestral Home in China - Episode 19)
Welcome back to my channel documenting the renovation of my ancestral house in China’s Guangdong province, Zhongshan city. In this episode, I ponder what to do with a part of the house that is puzzling to me - the attic. I’m not sure why we had an attic and what my grandparents did with it. I even thought about getting rid of it, until I realized its usefulness in traditional Chinese homes.
