With a long history of absorbing its migrant population and opening up to the world, Guangzhou prides itself as being a city of inclusiveness and openness while preserving its own culture.

Inside the Jiahewanggang station, dedicated spaces show the culture of Canton, Cantonese opera, colored porcelain, delicacies, distinctive architecture and other Lingnan cultural elements.

After the song went viral, an increasing number of tourists from near and far have made special trips to take photos and record videos at the station.

"May your journey ahead be as beautiful as a tapestry of flowers, and may there be a reunion waiting for you," a new poster in the station says.

Another poster reads: "When it comes to matters of love, the subway keeps silent. When it comes to your future, the subway wishes you well."

While Jiahewanggang was adopted as the song's name, the metro station has elegantly evolved into an urban cultural tourism landmark.
