A recent post on social media platform, Douyin claimed visitors to Chengdu Happy Valley theme park could partake in a “kiss to enter” activity.
The post claimed that “regardless of gender” and “regardless of species,” those who wanted to enter the park could “kiss to enter.”

It’s not clear what exactly the post meant; “regardless of species” meant people could kiss their pets to enter? We’ll leave that to your imagination…
Would visitors be able to enter for free with a kiss, or would they merely get a discount? Would you have to kiss at the entrance, or would showing a photo be enough? So many questions.
Regardless of the details, the post gained enough traction to the point that Happy Valley had to put out an official statement.
On the official Happy Valley Douyin account, a statement released on May 9 confirmed (just in case you were in doubt) that none of the Happy Valley locations anywhere in China were running the “kiss to enter” activity.

The Happy Valley Culture and Travel Development Company, Ltd. was formed in 2017 and is headquartered in the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Cooperation Area in Nanshan district, Shenzhen.
The group owns a number of Happy Valley theme parks in Shenzhen, Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan, Tianjin, Chongqing, Nanjing and Xi’an, as well as the aforementioned park in Chengdu.
