Thanks to Wang Jing, the metro map now has pronunciations in Mandarin for all the new stations will will open at the end of this year. So if you’d like to hear how to say the name of the catchy Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone (North), click the button below!
To hear the pronunciation for any station on the metro map, click any station then click the icon in the top right of the information bubble.
The ExploreShanghai metro map now has audio for every station on the network. So if you’re wondering how to say “Shanghai Circus World” in Chinese, just click on the relevant station and then click the “play” button that appears in the top right.
My thanks to Wang Jing for doing the recordings, if you’re looking for a Mandarin teacher she comes highly recommended!
keep exploring,
