Shane and his wife, Echo, noticed this abandoned lot while living in Dongguan, China, a few years back. (Dongguan is a massive city between neighboring heavyweights Hong Kong and Guangzhao.) While some of it was used as an easy dump for unwanted/broken household products, one section was used as a makeshift laundry drying area, via bamboo poles. The lot had been cleared of smaller structures allowing these weeds to colonize, prior to an 8-story building being erected within a year of this photo. 

Thanks for the submission!
