Happiness, that short and delightful feeling, seems all too rare in 2020. But there’s one place where happiness is the name of the game. And, no, we’re not talking about Disney World. Denmark, currently the second happiest country on earth, is now home to The Happiness Museum, which is created by The Happiness Research Institute, a think tank focusing on well-being, happiness and quality of life. The eight-room museum is devoted to literally bringing happiness to life, reminding visitors what it is that gives value to them and makes them feel good. Led by Meik Wiking, author of three international bestsellers, the museum opened on July 14 in a small 240-square-meter space in Copenhagen.
Visitors to the museum will find many interactive exhibits. Each room is devoted to a specific approach to studying happiness. The politics of happiness exhibit asks questions about the role of elections and GDP in determining national happiness. There’s also a geography happiness section that explores the role of built environments on happiness levels, as well as showing a world map with the World Happiness Report 2020’s happiness ranking of 153 countries. There are other sections like the science of happiness, the history of happiness and what lies in store for the future.
Certain museum exhibits include visitors’ personal perception of happiness. Can you determine which half of the Mona Lisa’s mouth smiles? How do you explain the meaning of happiness? The museum houses a vast collection of donated artworks donated by people from around the globe, which remind them of happy moments in their lives.
While the museum is a very optimistic place to be, it’s also aware of the difficulties of being a public place in the middle of a global pandemic(流行病). The museum has strict policies in place to ensure social distancing and safety, including only allowing 50 visitors at a time and a one-way path through the museum.
幸福,那种短暂而愉快的感觉,在2020年似乎太少见了。但有一个地方,快乐是游戏的名字。不,我们说的不是迪士尼世界。丹麦目前是世界上第二幸福的国家,现在是幸福博物馆的所在地,它是由幸福研究所创建的,这是一个专注于幸福、幸福和生活质量的智库。这座有8个房间的博物馆致力于将幸福带入生活,提醒游客什么给他们带来了价值,什么让他们感觉良好。该博物馆由三部国际畅销书的作者Meik Wiking领导,于7月14日在哥本哈根的一个240平方米的小空间里开幕。
参观博物馆的人会发现许多互动式展品。每个房间都有一种研究幸福的具体方法。“幸福政治”展览提出了选举和GDP在决定国民幸福方面的作用。还有一个地理幸福部分,探讨了建筑环境在幸福水平上的作用,并展示了一幅世界地图,上面有《2020年世界幸福报告》对153个国家的幸福排名。还有其他部分,如幸福的科学,幸福的历史和未来的储备。
某些博物馆展品包括参观者对幸福的个人看法。你能分辨出蒙娜丽莎的哪半张嘴在笑吗?你如何解释幸福的意义?该博物馆收藏了来自世界各地的人们捐赠的大量艺术品,这些艺术品让他们想起了生活中的快乐时刻。
虽然博物馆是一个非常乐观的地方,但它也意识到在全球大流行期间作为公共场所的困难。为了确保社会距离和安全,博物馆制定了严格的政策,包括一次只允许50名游客,以及博物馆的单向通道。
