Special Zone for Mothers and Babies in Railway Station

Special Zone for Mothers and Babies in Railway Station

Chinese railway station waiting rooms are becoming as cosy as a baby's cot. Take Xi'an, the capital of China's northwest province of Shannxi, as an example.

A special waiting room has been set up in the railway station there, which provides mothers with excellent facilities for taking care of their babies.

There are cradles and hot water so that the babies can wait for their train in comfort.

What's more, waiting room attendants are on hand to help out if needed.

Hundreds of mothers with babies benefited from this free service over the past month during the Spring Festival travel season.
