Ramshackle 10-storey home, an offbeat tourist attraction in China, torn down

A unique 10-storey home in China's Guizhou province, built by owner Chen Tianming and popular with tourists for its whimsical design, has been demolished by local authorities. Chen, who spent years and significant funds on the structure, was taken into custody as the demolition took place and is now seeking legal recourse.
