It floats on water

It floats on water: Yes, some more photos from the visit to the water village in China, the sun sets have been displayed here during our post yesterday, and today, let’s take a look – a closer view – at the interior of the house, as well as a few angle view from the house itself.


Living room – quite cosy *not bad*

Pathway, great!

It even has its own swimming pool

A lake, perhaps

And, not forgetting a sandfield

Water village in China

Water village in China? Besides Kampong Ayer in Brunei Darussalam, China has its own water village in Shenzen, China. However, the houses are beautifully crafted with concrete and uniquely designed with top and classy materials from glazed glasses to well-painted walls. The scenery through the windows are definitely a “cannot miss” as it may as well beat the view from a popular five star hotel. More pictures up tomorrow!


This is the house we were talking about

A closer view from the front

I love the view of the sunset from an angle

The “meeting” room

Great antiques to boost up the design
