Manuel Barrantes has spent 12 years building his subterranean home in Costa Rica.
The house goes up to 63 feet deep underground and contains tunnels that stretch for thousands of feet.
Digging through red soil and volcanic rock, Barrantes created the house to protect him and his family from noise pollution and the effects of climate change.
Recently, a Reuters photographer captured stunning photographs of Barrantes' underground world, which you can actually tour.
