Every morning, the  villages pray of the god to bless them as always and protect them from all sinister eyes. A simple village has a group of people living in circular thatched roof huts with walls made up of plaster of clay, cow dung, and hay. The houses are bordered by baras which are typically made up of the dry branches of a nettle-like shrub. The sharp thorns of boundaries ensure that the cattle do not leave the premises on their own. Bigger houses can be found in larger villages only and they mostly belong to affluent Zamindar (landowner) families.

The Villages are famous for folk arts, especially for the decorative sketches (Mandana) which adorn the walls of  their mud houses.
