Those are stairs. In ancient China, they were used to get to the next floor. Nowadays, they have been replaced almost completely by elevators.

Are they used for going up, or down? Or do you have to turn them around depending on which way you're travelling?

They're upwards stairs. Downward stairs are considered inauspicious.

Actually, you're all wrong. It's a bookshelf designed to look like stairs. Can't you see some books have been stacked on it?
