What would you consider the strangest type of dwelling to live in? A crashed airplane? Maybe to live the fantasy of the poem about the woman who lived in a shoe? What about a super futuristic house on a cliff shaped like a cube? These may be strange, but an even stranger real-estate trend is shocking the world one country at a time.

In the Sacred Valley of Cuzco, Peru, a company has erected 3 glass capsules 400 feet up a mountain hanging on the Cliffside that they call Skylodge Adventure Suites. Each unit can hold 8 people and go for $290 a night. As far as we can tell, most of the walls are transparent so if you’ve got a fear of heights you may have to wait for your more adventurous friends at ground level.
