Hello Kitty Hospital in Taiwan

A Hello Kitty-themed 30-bed maternity and pediatric hospital has opened in Yuanlin, Taiwan. The facility is authorised by Sanrio.

Director Tsai Tsung-chi said he hopes the white, mouthless cat that is one of the world’s most recognisable characters, will ease the pain and fear associated with childbirth and being admitted into hospital.
