These are several shots of the 19th century Empress Elisabeth of Austria themed birthing room at the Mizuguchi Hospital in Japan. It has pretty much everything a hospital birthing room doesn’t need, and is missing pretty much everything important including those monitors with the wavy lines and stuff like that. I’m very technical. No word how much it costs to have your kid here, but I imagine it’s a price – wait for it – fit for an empress. See what I did there? It was stupid and I regret it. I was born in the same hospital by the same doctor as my dad. When I was born there was only me and one other baby in the hospital. That’s Buckhannon, West Virginia for you: perfect in every way.

Keep going for a handful of more shots.
