Bungling builders? The upside-down house dizzying tourists

Eager visitors posed with upside-down dining tables and beige couches in a purple painted living room

Cowboy builders are not to blame for this unusual house.

Hundreds of tourists have queued for a chance to tour an upside-down home in Shanghai's suburbs, China.

Eager visitors posed with dining tables and beige couches that had been nailed to the ceiling - which was fashioned with wooden panels to look like a floor.

The peculiar house - which is reminiscient of the scene in the Disney film 'Mary Poppins' where the characters have an upside-down tea party - was built by a Polish designer.

The door to the house - which is actually an upstairs window -  opens into the roof and the stone foundations of the buildings face the sky.

And if visitors weren't confused enough by their topsy-turvy surroundings, the floor also slopes downwards.

Huang Qi, 27, said: 'I've felt a little dizzy since I came in. Everything has been turned upside-down. It's pretty interesting. But I think the real reason I feel dizzy is that the floor is sloping. That's why I feel dizzy.'

And Sun Mingjiao was dazzled by the facilities.

She said: 'The little toilet in the bathroom made the biggest impression on me. I think its design is pretty innovative.

'Normal people may not think about it this way, but when I took a look at it inside, I had the feeling that water might fall out of it. It made me feel really strange.'

A trip to the quirky tourist attraction, which opened April 30 costs 30 yuan - £3 - per visit.
