The purpose of this study is to explain the meaning of parts of traditional dwellings of Dai Lu People in Xishuangbanna from the point of view of the meaning of the housing language and to find out the traditional spacial structure of Dai Lu People's dwellings. The traditional spacial structure of Dai Lu People's dwellings is explained as follows. In a dwelling there is a distinctive division between indoor spaces and outdoor spaces. Indoor spaces are composed of one bedroom and one hall which consists of a living space and a dining space and a kichen space. In a corner of a bedroom people worship the god of a house. Its space is the highest rank in indoor spaces. And a kichen space which is a corner of a hall is the lowest rank in indoor spaces. That is to say in Dai Lu People's dwellings there is the spacial order which is similar to Uchi-Soto and Oku-Mae of the Japanese spacial order.
