Ananova reports that traffic officials in Chengdu, China came up with this idea for a romantic crosswalk. The crosswalk is close to an area where young couples go on dates.
A spokesman said the local traffic bureau wanted to give the crossing a romantic atmosphere because it was close to the Hejiang Pavilion, a popular dating venue for young couples.
"We want to make everybody who walks on it feel warmth and love from others," said the spokesman, adding that it was believed to be the first crossing of its kind in the whole country.
"We have two wishes - one, that all who walk on it experience long-lasting love and, two, that they obey traffic rules and cross safely."
It isn't clear if the crosswalk is a seasonal design or a permanent one but it works both for Valentine's Day and the romantic dating venue in Chengdu. (via Neatorama)
