A new tourist attraction in Chongqing Municipality of Southwestern China is going viral, and for all the right reasons! The flying kiss ride features two giant statues that blow kisses in the air. The installations showcase a man and a woman, each holding a rotating observation deck, at the height of 3,000 feet, to allow visitors enjoy a sweeping view of the landscape.
If you’re already wondering about the adrenaline rush, here’s something that will add to your bewilderment. The flying kiss ride has no seat, no seat belts, and no safety harness. So, if you are ready to test your adventurous side, here’s your golden chance.
The statues in this ‘extreme’ theme park face each other, bend to the ground, and pick up passengers from a rooftop platform, only to take them on a fabulous ride where they can witness the scintillating skyline.

There’s only a waist-high railing to keep you from tripping off. Those who feel like doing so can also move around the observation deck.
The flying kiss ride seeks inspiration from a Chinese mythical love story. The two statues portray the two partners of that love story.
So here’s something to add to your post-Corona bucket list, and rediscover the lost thrill you’ve been dying to experience during the entire lockdown.
