NETIZENS are ridiculing a self-acclaimed "7-star" hotel in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province, saying it looked like a toilet seat.
The hotel emerged on the south bank of the Taihu Lake, China's second largest fresh water lake and a famous tourist attraction.
A blogger named "mr-sugar" tweeted, "Are you ready for Star Wars?" Another blogger, Chen_Yumu, said the "Big Pants" 鈥 jeans-like tower in Suzhou 鈥 will be eclipsed by this "toilet seat" because it's "much cooler."
Earlier reports said a 157-meter-high steel loop that cost nearly a 100 million yuan to build in a small town in Liaoning Province has no practical functions other than to entertain the eyes.
Dubbed the "Ring of Life," the giant building is designed by the same architect who designed the Oriental Pearl TV Tower in Shanghai, the Shenyang Evening News said.
The ring is equivalent to a 50-floor building in height and used 3,500 tons of steel. Workers installed 12,000 LED lights on the structure.
