Do Yurts Have Bathrooms?
Yurts, in their traditional form, do not typically come with built-in bathrooms. However, modern yurts can be customized to include bathroom facilities. Here are some common options:
Options For Yurt Bathrooms
Portable Toilets: Many yurts use portable or composting toilets as a convenient solution for bathroom needs. These can be set up in a separate space or within a designated area in the yurt.
Attached Bathroom Units: Some yurts are designed with an attached bathroom unit or a nearby structure that includes a full bathroom with a shower, toilet, and sink.
Outdoor Bathrooms: Mongolian nomads traditionally use an outhouse as their primary bathroom facility. These simple, functional structures are typically located a short distance from the main living area of the yurt to maintain hygiene and privacy. The outhouses are usually constructed from local materials, often featuring a basic pit or composting system for waste management.
