Hong Kong
Homemade Skyscrapers
Hong Kong is the most densely populated city in the world, and is filled
with high-rise office blocks, apartment buildings, etc., and plans for
more! Try making your own miniature city.
Start by making building frames from toothpicks, using something like
dried peas or beans for joints (soak the peas / beans overnight to make
them softer). Then add cardboard floors at the different levels. Then let
your imagination take off!
