Why there are flat roof houses in Leh Ladhak, Jammu Kashmir?? Why they don't have sloping roof houses??

Dear Student,

It is important to note most of the houses in Jammu and Kashmir region have slanting roof and not flat roof. This is because mountain region receives heavy rainfall and snow, thus to prevent water and snow to be accumulated, they have slanting roofs.


In Ladakh region , we may see flat roof in region where there is less rainfall.
