Omo Hada

TIME : 2016/2/17 12:36:12

One of only five such surviving buildings on the island, the Omo Hada is situated in the prestigious ‘upstream’ direction of the remote Hilinawalo Mazingo village, garnering the first rays of morning light. It still serves its traditional purpose as a meeting hall for seven neighbouring villages. In order to repair damages from age and climate, villagers have been trained in traditional carpentry skills, in turn preserving crafts that were nearing extinction. You need a local guide and sturdy motorbike to negotiate the bad roads.
