Brilio.net - The bathroom is one of the rooms that must be in every house. Everyone has their own design to make it feel comfortable and functional.
Bathroom designs have also changed over time. Not only technological developments and people's habits have changed, but also the style and concept of the room that adapts to the times.
In the past, bathrooms in villages were designed simply and more in tune with nature. Some didn't even have a roof, allowing natural light to come in directly and giving an open feel.
This can be seen in the upload of the TikTok account @kiyantu, which shared a portrait of an old-fashioned rural bathroom. The upload immediately invited nostalgia for many netizens who had experienced something similar.

"I've experienced something like this before. Also, when I do ablution, I use something like a jug," @melaroyana8
