The streets have been paved with gold at a shopping centre in China where a walkway has been built using real 24-carat bars.

The walkway at the indoor centre is made from 606 shiny golden bars, protected by a thick layer of glass which allows people to walk over them.

They're worth an incredible 拢20 million in total, and weigh around 1kg (2.2lb) each.

'Golden week'

The golden path has been constructed to celebrate the shopping centre's 18th anniversary and "Golden Week", a national holiday in China.

Shoppers have been eager to use the walkway, as it's apparently believed in China that walking on gold brings luck.
