A House in the middle of the river in Serbia

The tiny house on a rock has stood in the middle of the river for more than 40 years. The house was built in 1968 by a group of young boys who were looking for the place to sunbathe. Since the rock wasn’t too comfortable to lie down on, they collect some boards to create a platform. The following year, they made walls and a roof, transporting materials via boats and kayaks. Many times, the house was nearly destroyed by flooding, but every time it has been faithfully restored from the ground up. If you are interested and one of those curious travelers, you can find the house on Drina River near the town of Bajina Basta, on the eastern edge of Tara National Park, in Serbia.
