The interior design of Ping'anli Station on Line 19 of the Beijing Subway, Feb. 2, 2023. The station's light fixtures are modelled after lanterns commonly displayed during Lantern Festival in the Ming dynasty (1368-1644). Meanwhile, the columns in the station's concourse resemble the style of "revolving lanterns" and display traditional Chinese shadow puppetry, showcasing unique characteristics of Chinese cultural heritage.
