The Fàng Sōng houseboat is a solar-powered motorboat with tiny home features. It has a pop-up kitchen table and a bike storage compartment under the living room floor. Take a look inside.

Is it a boat? Is it a tiny home? Well ... it's a bit of both.

The boat, a bespoke project, is 15 m long and 4 m wide.

The Fàng Sōng is capable of traveling on rivers, lakes, and inland waterways — just not the open ocean.

"Fàng Sōng" means "relax" in Chinese.

There are multiple entrances on each side of the boat for easy accessibility. The bow side provides access to the main kitchen area.

There's a sizeable shower unit in the bathroom.

The average range of the Fàng Sōng is 50 km (31 miles) per day on sunny days, Crossboundaries says. Which means it's not suitable for long, non-stop journeys.

A pellet stove, remotely controlled by an app, helps heat the boat.

Crossboundaries said the boat's owner plans to add a water purification system and a biological sewage treatment unit to allow for longer journeys.
