Abstract/Summary:
Metro culture embodies the soul of urban culture, which is the source of underground culture, and also the basis of the subway culture. And each nation has its own culture, and its development is inseparable from its own culture. Loss of the cultural meaning of heritage, every nation will lose its own characteristics. City's subway is part of the history of urban development; it contains the city's cultural heritage, reflecting the city's geographical and ethnic features. The city's cultural development of regional culture is the start point of Metro.First of all, the trends of both metro and urban cultural development are in the same way. In any city in the world, we can always find something different from other cities, it includes the human spirit, customs, urban layout, architecture and streets of the city, and we can trace its history, development process and future. In other words, urban culture, urban history and social changes are closely related, reflecting the basic context of urban civilization. American cities don't have a long history just due to the migration, but culture of these cities reflects the diversity of religions, customs and interaction with each other. However, the cities in Europe have a long history; for instance, the spirit of the Renaissance still has affects and every modern city protects its long-standing, simple and elegant as the core of urban culture. As a developmental need of the city, the subway and its culture showed up. For example, the Tokyo subway is based on the successful experience of western subway; it is of more modern metropolis appearance, taking advantage of the space to run business activities, like the sale of various commercial goods. Metro cultural construction is in line with principles of cultural development, at the same time, highlights the feature of the country, urban, ethnic. It should be noted, the greatest points are the deconstruction of the MTR social relations, restructuring society and affecting people's lives. Metro brings the flow of people to the place where make land appreciation and more commercial activities.And it is necessary to consider the short-term interests, but also consider long-term interests. If metro culture is accurate, design and construction are reasonable, which will play a significant role in promoting the overall development of the city, and even enhancing this city's status in the country and the world, brings immeasurable economic benefits.To summary, the underground culture is the embodiment of urban culture and urban culture is the basis of underground culture. To enhance the social spirit of the city, promote cultural development, promote the city's economic development and culture in the construction of subway, we cannot leave the history of urban development and the direction of the development, ignore the cultural needs of the public in the construction of subway. Only combine the rational use of urban cultural resources and fully exploit the potential of underground culture, both are based on the direction of expanding the extension of subway culture, the characteristics of urban culture will become more clear, condensation of the spirit of the city, all of those could contribute to the city sound development.
