Hi! You have noticed many interesting similarities with Asian culture and elements of traditions in architectural and everyday details. Great shots! I think that now often can be see such borrowing in interiors and registration of the homes some people. Maybe the more tourists visit these places, the more different cultures integrate into our lives. (Well, it's like one of the options). For example, in our city you can often see such details. Because we have a multi-ethnic population. People try to bring something of their culture and their national traditions. Thank you!
