Usually one wont sound so excited when the word “hospital” is being mentioned. But it’s totally different when a hello-kitty themed hospital is specially built for expectant mothers to deliver their babies!


The Hau-Sheng Hospital, a four storey pink hospital was built in 2006 and claims to be the only hospital officially authorised by Sanrio, the parent company of the popular cartoon character.

It features a Hello Kitty statue in doctor’s uniform that stands in the lobby and directs patients into a registration area beside a Hello Kitty elevator. Patients then wait to be examined in a pink room with a Hello Kitty poster.

The hospital wishes to create a cosy atmosphere for mothers who often fear the pain of giving birth. Twice a year, Hello Kitty live figures come to the hospital to visit mothers and children.

Tsai Tsung-chi, director of Hau-Sheng Hospital, said: “I wish everyone who comes here - mothers suffer while giving birth, and children suffer with their sickness - to receive medical care while seeing this Kitty, it brings a smile to their faces, helps them forget about discomfort and recover faster.”

The hospital has 30 beds, with two beds in a room. Each room, with a Hello Kitty room number plate, is equipped with Hello Kitty bed sheets, pillow cases, blankets, dressers, pink curtains, wallpaper, and a large poster. Cutlery and dressing table also features hello kitty. And lastly, even the nurses and doctors wore hello-kitty uniforms!

Tsai spent more than $3.2 million (£2.1 million) constructing and decorating the building from scratch.

How cute is that?


Although the hospital only has 30 beds, it’s always full. They’re really popular with the Taiwanese. I cant seem to find the charges of the hospital but bet they must be real expensive. Haha Though I do wish Singapore have one too. They will definitely bring smiles and ease the tension of stressful fathers and mothers.
It is a tradition for asian women to spend a month resting & recovery after giving birth. And if you’re so crazy with pink and girly stuff, there is this recovery center which has gorgeous rooms.

So sweetttttt~
So expectant mothers can give birth in a Hello Kitty hospital and after that spend a whole month inside a pretty pink room! Lol. Shiok!
