Accompanied by the familiar rhythm of the candidates, the sentence "I am really excited to open the Tunma line", the city became popular on the first day of the opening of the Tunma line.
Songhuangtai Station on the Tunma Line has also become a hot spot for check-in. On the first public holiday after its opening, the station was crowded with more than a hundred citizens deliberately visiting the cultural relics exhibition.
Some parents take their children here on holidays, hoping to let their children learn about the history of Hong Kong through cultural relics, and some citizens are curious about the way the cultural relics are displayed at the MTR station, hoping that other MTR stations will follow the example of Songhuangtai Station in the future.

Today (1st) is the first public holiday after the opening of the Tuen Ma Line, and the Songhuangtai Station is full of people.
At the cultural relics exhibition in the lobby of the station, more than one hundred people waited in line, mainly families and elderly people, and the scene was ruinous. Many citizens said that they came to visit specially and wanted to see the cultural relics of the Song Dynasty with their own eyes.
Due to the large number of visitors to the cultural relics, there was a crowd once in the morning. The sign at the entrance of the exhibition indicated that the waiting time was about 20 minutes and reminded passengers to leave the gate within 150 minutes after entering the gate.
In order to ease the crowds, broadcasts are broadcast from time to time in the station to remind the current cultural relics exhibition area that there are more people and it will take a long time to visit. It is recommended that the public can go to watch later.
Ms. Chen, who was queuing to see the delivery, thought that the arrangement of the cultural relics exhibition at the MTR station was very novel and suggested that other stations could follow suit.
She explained that the cultural relics exhibition is located in the lobby, and many citizens can stop and watch when they pass by.
In addition, she mentioned that most of the palace supplies belonging to the Song Dynasty that she had visited in the past, rarely saw folk cultural relics at that time, such as some incense burners and tea sets. She appreciated the clear description of the text description of the exhibition. The only thing she regretted was that , The entire exhibition does not mention the reasons why the cultural relics have been buried here for many years. It is hoped that the exhibition that will be opened in the future can complete this part and make the entire history more complete.

Another visitor, Mr. Guo, believes that the cultural relics exhibition is nothing special, describing that it will only be viewed when waiting for friends.
He believes that other distinctive MTR stations should also incorporate relevant community elements. "For example, Kai Tak Station is where the old airport is located, but there is no corresponding design to highlight its community elements. It is a pity."
