TL;DR: things that people produce such as labor, products, and services are not taxed at all. No payroll taxes, no sales tax, no income tax, and no capital gains tax on investments in productive activity or human-made capital.
Things that people did not produce such as land or the right to extract natural resources are taxed. For land the land value is taxed, but this does not include the value of things built on the land.
You're basically billed for the right to "own" things that existed before any of us were born. Since not much else is taxed, these taxes could be rather steep.
This strongly incentivizes efficient use of land and natural resources and discourages non-productive squatting on them. You would not see, for example, a bunch of self-storage places and gigantic sprawling car washes in Silicon Valley. The land value taxes in such an area would be far too high to justify anything but highly efficient productive uses of the land such as housing, manufacturing, offices, etc. Vertical construction would be highly incentivized in high value areas.
