This building is considered “the cheapest house in the world” because it was built from trash, mud, bamboo, and branches  The man spent 10 years building this 7-story home for his family, but sadly, he never got to live in it because he was committed to a psychiatric clinic

In the Chinese city of Weifang, one unusual house has become a local attraction.

Built by hand by a 55-year-old man, it stands seven stories tall and is made from whatever materials were available: mud, broken bricks, clay, bamboo, branches, and construction debris.

Locals call it “the cheapest house in the world.” But behind this quirky structure lies a touching story.

Hu Guangzhou was born into a farming family. He was the eldest son and felt responsible for his younger brothers from an early age.

The family lived in poverty, and Hu left school to take on any kind of job just to feed the family and provide education for his brothers.

During those hard years, the three of them shared a dream — to one day build a big house where the whole family could live together: parents, wives, and children.

Hu began to make the dream come true with his own hands. He had no blueprints or experience, and used whatever he could find on the streets and in dumps: branches, clay, stones, garbage, leftover building materials.

It took five years to create the foundation, three more to build the floors, and another two to reinforce and finish. He worked alone.

But during that time, fate struck cruelly. His brothers, who had left for the city in search of a better life, never found it. One died in a car accident, the other from illness.

When Hu heard about their deaths, he refused to believe it.

“They’ll come back,” he said. “And they will have a home.”

The house still stands today, and no one dares to tear it down.
