If you can't get away to the mountain...

...move the mountains to you.

That's exactly what Zhang Biqing of Beijing did, spending six years and $130K transforming his 26th floor penthouse apartment into a mountain get-away.  (All using the service elevator to move rocks, wooden panels and shrubbery to the roof - good thing his apartment wasn't in Benidorm, Spain!)



Neighbors have naturally complained that there is a safety issue and the district government has said that if Zhang can't prove that the structure is "not unsafe," it will have to be torn down within 15 days.  Let's hope if that turns out to be the case he doesn't opt to by-pass the service elevator when taking it down!
