An amazing upside-down house has opened to tourists in Fengjing, an
ancient Chinese town located near Shanghai.
The inverted building has two floors and includes fixtures and
fittings.
Inside the house the furnishings, which include sofas plus table
and chairs, have all been stuck to the floor, which is now the
ceiling.
The house presents visitors with the opportunity to take some
unique and fun photographs
There is even a fully furnished bathroom inside the house, although
thankfully the toilet is not one that can be used.
One visitor told the BBC he felt disorientated walking through the
house. 'I feel a little dizzy,' he said. 'All the furnishings are
upside down and I think the floor is sloping a bit, that's why I
feel dizzy.'
The old town of Fengjing is a popular destination for tourists and
is known for its ancient stone bridges dating back to the Yuan
Dynasty. It remains to see if this building will stand a similar
test of time.
A Polish design company reportedly took five months to complete the
house from the roof up. It is now open to the public for US$5 a
visit.
