लगातार किस गर्दा केटीहरू बेहोस (भिडियो सहित )

The sight of dozens of shoppers passionately kissing each other in a mall would be surprising in any country, but especially so in China where public affection is frowned upon.

But that's exactly what bemused shoppers stumbled upon at Zheng Xingyuan Mall, in the city of Xi'an in northern China's Shaanxi province, which had organised a public kissing competition.

But it was no ordinary snog fest - the couples were challenged to come up with the most difficult kissing position in order to take out the prize of 888 Chinese yuan - about £90.
