Chinese university building mocked for looking like giant toilet
Building in central China that cost US$13 million comes complete with ‘bowl’ and ‘cistern’, internet users say
A university building in central China has been mocked by internet users for looking like a toilet, according to a news website.
Internet users joked that the front of the building looked like a toilet bowl and the back a cistern.
Even the roof of the block at the college looked like a toilet lid, they joked.
“It looks ugly and strange,” one internet user was quoted as saying.
About 86 million yuan (US$13 million) was invested in the building which is designed to help the college’s graduates start their own businesses. The building opened last year.
One internet user was a little more forgiving about the building’s design.
“I can’t see any innovation and beauty in the building, but the designer did well if it’s to help local graduates,” they wrote.
