City Harbin in north-east China plans to "grow" two money trees at a local money museum as a new tourist attraction.
Pictured in this undated photo are workers hanging ancient copper coins onto a money tree, a new tourist attraction of Harbin's money museum in north-east China.
Harbin Daily reported that two money trees, expected to grow to 2.6 meters in height, will be adorned with a total of 3,000 ancient copper coins.
The tree will replicate the appearance of a legendary tree that shed coins when shaken, a relic unearthed from the Han Dynasty (206 BC - 220 AD).
