A Chinese city has built a highway bridge around a tiny house after its owner refused to sell it to the government for a decade.

The building is one of many examples of 'nail houses' in China - or 'dingzihu' in Mandarin - where homeowners reject compensation from a developer for its demolition.

Footage released by local media shows the property tightly wedged between two wings of the newly opened Haizhuyong Bridge in the metropolis of Guangzhou in Guangdong province.

The one-storey house contains a 40-square-metre (430-square-foot) flat and is situated in a pit in the middle of the four-lane traffic link, according to Guangdong TV station.

The owner, known by her surname Liang, said she had not agreed to move because the government had failed to offer her a replacement property in an ideal location.

She added that she was happy to deal with the consequences and did not mind what other people thought of her.

'You think this environment is poor, but I feel it's quiet, liberating, pleasant and comfortable,' she claimed.

An insider told the station that Ms Liang had demanded the government give her four apartments, but the government had only agreed to two.

According to another interview recorded by Pear Video, she claimed the government had offered her substitute accommodation next to a morgue, and that was why she hadn't settled.

The 'nail house' has sparked an internet sensation in China after footage and images of it emerged on social media.

The government of Haizhu district said on Thursday that officials earmarked the plot on Huandao Road for demolition in 2010 to build the Haizhuyong Bridge, reported Guangzhou Daily.

The most far-sighted "nail house" owner​

A family holds their ground and refuses to move for 13 years, the government didn't back down, neither did the family, but because the house location is in in the middle of a flyover complex, a golden location for advertisement, some companies pay them to erect advertisement billboards on the house, this family made over ￥100 million， （$15,770,000 USD）during the past 13 years from the advertisement billboards.​

In China " Nail House" is a big headache for the government. Some of them refuse to move for almost 2 decades.

Nail house
Traditional Chinese 釘子戶
Simplified Chinese 钉子户
neologism for homes belonging to people (sometimes called "stubborn nails") who refuse to make room for real estate development. The term, a pun coined by developers, refers to nails that are stuck in wood, and cannot be pounded down with a hammer.
