In China, an apartment of 5 sq.m. shot in less than a minute (3 photos + 1 video)
An advertisement for a “dream apartment” in Shanghai went viral online almost as quickly as its new tenant was found.
The fact is that the average rent for a one-room apartment in Shanghai is about 5 thousand yuan ($640) per month, while half of the city's population earns less than 6 thousand yuan ($770). The cheapest rent is 700 yuan, and there are not many houses with a monthly rent of less than 1000 yuan.
Finding an apartment in the city at lower prices is the dream of several hundred thousand young Chinese who are trying to make a living in a metropolis that, at last count, is home to more than 24 million people.
But let's return to the apartment itself. Rent costs 300 yuan ($40) per month. For this modest price you get a toilet, a bed on the floor and 5 sq. m. m. What else is needed for happiness?
There is a wooden board separating him from the neighbors, and in the kitchen - in the nook to the left of the room - “there’s even a window” and “a lot of fresh air.”
The downside is that it’s inconvenient to take a shower, the bed gets wet.
The tiny apartment went to the food delivery driver. According to the agent, 300 yuan to rent "a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room" is a great deal.
This is how much imagination you need to have to see in 5 square meters. meters there are already 4 rooms.
