Uvs are a type of traditional Mongolian dwelling, also known as yurts. They are portable, circular tents made from a wooden frame covered with felt or fabric. Uvs are designed to provide warmth and shelter in the harsh climates of Central Asia, particularly in Mongolia, where nomadic lifestyles are common. The structure of a Uvs allows for easy assembly and disassembly, making it ideal for people who move frequently. Inside, they are often furnished with a central hearth for cooking and heating, and they can be decorated with colorful textiles and traditional Mongolian art, reflecting the culture and lifestyle of their inhabitants.
