Worldwide Bungalows

A bungalow is a type of single-story house that originated in India. The word derives from the Gujarati word baoglo, which in turn came from Hindi baogla. It means "Bengali", used elliptically for a "house in the Bengal style".[1] Such houses were traditionally small, only one story, thatched and had a wide veranda.[2] Bungalows today are a type of house that is usually single story or one and a half stories, and can be quite large.
