Dear MEL Topic Readers,

China develops online toilet map for tourists

Headquartered in Beijing, China’s tech giant Baidu has China’s largest and the world’s second largest search engine with over two billion active users. Since there is no presence of Google in China, Baidu is the de-facto search engine there. Now, responding to a request by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Baidu is going to show locations of toilets in tourist attractions, transport centers, parks, and even restaurants across the country on its map app.

That sounds helpful for both foreign and domestic travelers whose yearly number exceeds 50 million and five billion respectively.

Will the app show the type of the toilet, whether squat or western and/or the cleanliness? Well, the country is trying to improve the toilet cleanliness to lure visitors under the initiative set by the administration. Star-rated toilets may be shown on your smartphone soon.

Enjoy reading and plan a trip to China to find how the toilet map works.
