Actually it’s completely normal in China for a well respected doctor to build his very own mountain peak and villa on top of a 26-storey building in the country’s capital of Beijing.
Zhang Biqing’s rooftop ‘paradise’ took six years to build, which makes the fact that he has now been ordered to tear down the “most outrageous illegal structure” within the next 15 days, pretty sad. Biqing’s rooftop villa boasts two storeys of fake rocks, real trees and grass sprawled over the top of his apartment building. But here’s the best part – it’s valued at R23 million.
Neighbours living in the apartment building have been complaining to authorities for years about noise levels, late night parties and the fact that the villa was damaging the building’s structural integrity. Only once images of the villa were published in the media did they do anything about it.
