    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on Chinese parents who visit Beijing parks in search of partners for their children. Topics discussed include marriage markets that are a curiously Chinese phenomenon; younger Chinese who became more independent-and reluctant to have their parents decide their love lives; thousands of marriage posters on display at Zhongshan park; and well-educated and successful women working at the parks.
