Chinese hotel made out of an OLD CONCRETE PIPE

In this modern world of luxury travel and money-no-object holidays, the more fortunate among us are able to demand all manner of high end accoutrements from the places where we stay: infinity pools, splendid spas, rooms with glorious views, butler service.But for a few tourists in rural China, travel can be about more simple pleasures.Specifically, travel can involve accommodation crammed into an old concrete pipe.This sturdy piece of circular masonry has been chopped up into some 15 separate mini-structures – each designed to host two people, and equipped with a double bed.Some might say that such accommodation could be considered a little on the rudimentary side.But anyone opting to stay can also expect such little ‘extra’ touches as air-conditioning, as well as bright bursts of street art painted onto the outside walls.For all its no-frills approach, this unusual outpost is proving popular with holidaymakers keen to sample the countryside in what is one of China’s largest and heavily populated provinces.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.az
