Rumah Baloy, traditional house of Tidung

This traditional house is the result of the architectural art culture of the Tidung tribe, North Kalimantan. Like other tribes, the Tidung tribe has its own culture and traditional house model. Although this traditional house still uses a number of high poles at the bottom, the shape of this traditional house building looks more modern and fashionable. It is suspected that this traditional house is the result of the development of Dayak architecture from Rumah Panjang (Rumah Lamin) as inhabited by the Dayak Kenyah tribe in East Kalimantan.
