A luxury barge is under construction on the Yangtze River in southwest China's Chongqing.

The barge, with a 7-story structure and a semispherical dome on top, covers about 40,000 square meters. Designed as a venue for dining, entertainment, and leisure, the 150 million yuan (about $25 million) project was dubbed a "water palace" by local people.

The project is owned by a catering company.
