Nevertheless a great find! @Stevo: I imagine it's more like the cells of the people who built the building, just like in the old days of China. The people who build the buildings get sealed in after completing it. @Melissa: Tax structure in China? Are you kidding me? I can't even figure out the bus routes here in Xi'an. @Laura: Actually it was Christa who pointed it out to me. Nevertheless a great find!
