here’s a question i’ve never been asked: does mainland china have a siesta culture?

HELL YEAH. maybe a lot of us here on this here english lang fanbase (idk about, frex, spanish or russian-mainly speaking fandoms) are from places that don’t siesta? but write! those! naps!
cute date idea: both of them are only free from busy work days during siesta hours and so they try to go on a date but the place they were gonna go is closed for wushui so they just sit down on a park bench. and then. fall asleep.
cute date idea 2: wushui buddies who don’t talk to each other just nap on the same company couch
cute date idea 3: coworkers but one ends at wushui and the other starts when wushui is over so they never meet but leave each other cute notes idk this isn’t a date
it’s not weird for office people to put their head down and sleep. one of my old jobs even had napping cubicles. for napping. well technically probably they were for private phone calls or whatever but they had benches and pillows what were we gonna do
it’s not weird for businesses to just have closed time. sucks if ur out exploring in the morning tho and don’t time ur ‘being hungry’ state just right tho. i speak from experience.
it’s not weird to see people asleep on the subway, asleep on their delivery bikes (parked, ofc), etc etc, siestas real and CAN heal you, etc etc, if u come from a siesta culture u know what i mean.
in truth i speak from experience in beijing and also a quick google to double check it’s not just beijing, but, of course, I only have the experienced certainty of beijing. but i’m not wrong. anyway for more pro tips peep here https://twitter.com/jiangququ/status/1359947499159568388
