Designs have been released by the China Railway Group for the Kuala Lumpar terminal of the Singapore-Malaysia high speed rail line, declaring it set to become the world’s largest underground city.

The Bandar Malaysia terminus will feature an underground shopping mall, canals, theme parks, cultural villages and a financial centre, and house the regional HQ of China Railway Group. The KL–Singapore line will become part of the “pan-Asian network” connecting Malaysia with Bangkok, Vientiane, Rangoon, Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, and entering China at Kunming in Yunnan province.

“Bandar Malaysia will be a glittering gem on China’s rail corridor….[which] will link Southeast Asia with east Asia, west Asia and south Asia,” a China Railways spokesman said.
