A Chinese farmer spent ten years constructing this peculiar home out of stones, wood, and earth. It took him all of those materials to complete the project.
Hu Guangzhou, who is 55 years old, stated that the structure is intended for his brothers to live in when they return; however, according to the local newspaper, his brothers had been deceased for ten years.
The motion of the edifice has been compared to that of the iconic castle from the Hayao Miyazaki-written and -directed Japanese animated film Howl’s Moving Castle.

Hu, who is referred to as having a ‘biased personality’ in stories published by Chinese media outlets, spent five years constructing the foundation of the residence in Linqu County, Shandong. It took him three years to build the additional levels on the building.
He even became ill after finishing the second level, which prevented him from working for a few months. After those few months, he made the decision to add more stories and then placed the roof on the structure.
Clay and stone blocks were the primary components of his construction supplies, and he gathered them using a tiny wheelbarrow.
The authorities have confronted Hu over the course of many years but lack the intestinal fortitude to bring down the structure.
Even though Hu’s brothers passed away more than a decade ago, he claims that they are still alive and that they will return to live with him in the house that he is currently constructing.
In his spare time, the farmer fixes various issues and adds reinforcements to the structure.
The individual is eligible for free steam buns at the neighborhood bun shop in addition to the subsidies that are provided by the government on a quarterly basis.

Weibo, the most widely used microblogging site in China, was buzzing with discussion over Hu’s groundbreaking creation.
“Does she have a mental illness? According to the Epoch Times, a number of individuals made the remark that “this is the IQ of a master; normal people just don’t comprehend it.”
Someone else remarked, “Those who wish to pull down the building should consider facing off against his certificate of mental illness and kitchen knife!”
“This is a real life rendition of Howl’s Moving Castle!” exclaimed the excited crowd.
