Traditional Clay Tile Roof of the Chaudhri Tribe House

23-Mar-2026

The picture shows a beautiful roof of a house belonging to the Chaudhri community, which is made using clay tiles (Khaprail). To make these tiles, wet clay is shaped and then baked in a kiln. After that, these tiles are used to cover the roof of the house.

You can see that first a wooden structure is prepared for the roof, and then the clay tiles are placed over it in an arranged manner. This type of roof helps protect the house from rain and strong sunlight.

This traditional construction style reflects the nature-connected lifestyle and indigenous knowledge of the Chaudhri tribal community.
