Two buildings constructed to attract investment to impoverished Guizhou province have already been listed for demolition because of bad town planning.
The buildings, in Guiyang and Anshun, were said to be illegal and were obstructing main roads.
Workers have already started to tear down the Jinse Da Shijie (Golden Universe) entertainment centre and nightclub in Guiyang, the provincial capital.
The 20 million yuan (HK$18.6 million) five-storey building was built in European style, complete with a dome, turrets and statues of naked women.
The demolition is part of the province's largest crackdown on illegal buildings. Officials said the centre was originally approved only as a temporary three-storey pedestrian mall.
'The Golden Universe obstructs traffic along Qingyun Road, one of Guiyang's main streets,' one official said.
When it opened last December, Golden Universe became Guiyang's most fashionable club. Less than six months later it had closed.
