A retired couple from the Primorye Territory in Russia built a palace out of ordinary garbage. The couple has proved that fairy tales are true and they constructed a palace for themselves. The key elements to achieve this milestone were dedication, creative imagination, and most importantly, patience.


The construction took sixteen years and it’s opened its doors to anyone. The Krivovs say their house looks best in autumn and summer, when the tiles become iridescent.

Their pets find the palace attractive all year long. Fourteen cats and three dogs now live inside the palace’s domes and towers.
