Lovelorn passengers seek partners aboard a love bus

More than 100 young people in Nanning, capital of Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, took an unusual bus tour arranged by the city committee of the Communist Youth League of China on April 25.

The trip was a speed-dating event. The buses were romantically decorated and the passengers put their love declarations in the fare box. During the tour, young men and women played games together, got to know each other and talked with people they were attracted to.
