IN a bold departure from the ordinary, Shenzhen Metro’s innovative Shentie Huifang project has magically transformed Chegongmiao Metro Station into a mesmerizing cyberpunk dreamscape. The station now pulsates with a futuristic energy, turning a routine commute into a thrilling journey through time.

From the moment commuters pass through Exit F, they are enveloped in a mesmerizing play of light and shadow that marks the beginning of their extraordinary journey. The tunnel, with its striking geometric patterns and seemingly infinite depths, immediately captivates the senses, heralding an immersive and unforgettable experience.

Inside the station, passengers are greeted by a series of sci-fi wonders — simulated Martian terrain, astronauts floating in space, futuristic farms, and towering skyscrapers that seem to defy gravity.

Near the station exit, a life-size astronaut commanding a spaceship provides a surreal backdrop for unforgettable photo opportunities.

As visitors proceed, they will encounter a monumental display of glass tubes depicting key moments in human civilization. This futuristic installation adds a final touch of otherworldly charm to an already remarkable journey.
