A Chinese man has built a miniature model of his hometown entirely out of coins.

He Peixi, 32, spent a month building the miniature city of Chingqing in China with more than 50,000 ancient and modern units of currency.

He said he spent about two hours every day during the month stacking up coins one by one to construct landmark buildings and bridges.
