Update: 2020-08-10     Source: Newsgd.com

There is a metro line in Guangzhou which hides various idyllic scenery, including flower sea, ancient villages, rice fields, and lakes. Whichever station you get off, you will be likely to accidentally break into a fairy tale world. It is the metro line 14!



Stations on the Guangzhou metro line 14. 

1.Jiahe Wanggang station (嘉禾望岗)

·Abandoned Boeing 737

An abandoned Boeing 737 is displayed on the rooftop of Jiada Plaza (嘉大广场), a shopping mall near Jiahe Wanggang station. It is said that at first the Plaza’s boss bought this plane with an intention of building a theme restaurant. But his plan was postponed indefinitely for unknown reasons. Therefore the plane was just placed on the top floor of the shopping mall. Nowadays, many airplane enthusiasts and internet celebrities like to take industrial-style pictures with the plane.
