On July 18th, Beijing was awarded the happiest city in China after a 2-week testing campaign across 6 major cities.
Two LED boards with “happy” and “sad” smileys were fixed on 10 bus stations in Beijing. Over 460 thousand Beijingers voted “happy” among the 820 thousand participants, a 56.06% ratio. Dengshi Xikou Station is the happiest spot among the 10 because of its closeness to Dongdan shopping malls and tourist attractions. Children’s Hospital Station is the saddest spot for obvious reasons.
Shanghai is awarded the second happiest city, the rest are Kunming, Xi’an, Guangzhou, and Chengdu.
“It is not a scientific and detailed statistic evaluation, but the result reflects certain facts”, according to “experts”.
