The Nipa Hut (Bahay Kubo) is the national house of the Philippines. It is constructed out of bamboo tied together. They work well as shelter from average wind and rain.

Nipa Hut is considered as one of the Philippines’ cozy and pleasurable places to relax. Compared to concrete houses, Nipa hut offers a cool, comfortable and relaxing sensation while staying inside. Thus, this is a perfect place to stay in together with your relatives and friends.

At present, you will have no more pressure in building your own nipa huts as the Philippines offer a wide array of Nipa Huts for sale for you to choose from. It has a modern stint on it. Furthermore, movable as it is, you can place it anywhere you want!

These movable Nipa Huts are usually found along the roadsides of provinces rich in bamboo (Pangasinan, La Union, Batangas and Quezon). There is even a thriving Nipa Hut industry in Cavite.

Though I spend most of my time at the city, I always feel like I’m home every time I stay and take a nap in the Nipa Hut owned by my aunt. Nipa Hut really never fails to bring me memories of home sweet home.
