About this place

A subway station entirely covered in one of China's largest indoor graffiti murals, depicting dynamic swirling kites and local Chongqing folklore across the curved ceiling and walls.

Drifter says

"You don't even need to exit the station. The mural spans the entire curved roof of the platform — stand at either end of the platform and shoot down the length for the full effect. Free if you're already using the metro. If you're coming specifically to see it, the cheapest metro ticket gets you in."
