The foolish man built his house upon the sand...

This was once the mansion of a local drug baron in Costa Del Sol, El Salvador. 

He was a powerful man and feared by the local community; hence when he declared he was going to build his house as close the sea-view as possible, no one dared to challenge him, and it was done; the house predictably sinking further and further into the sand each year. 

The house now sits in ruin, all of the roofing long gone, and quite a few trees having made themselves at home on the top floor.

The whole house is slanting dramatically, and it sits about 30 feet from the tide.
