Metro Arts and Architecture

Examples of good station design:

	Santiago de Chile Chile's capital has some metro stations with spectacular yet diverse modern architecture. Photo [railway-technology.com]: Mirador station built in 1997.
	There are also lots of works of art in Santiago's metro, like giant murals and sculptures, especially on line 5 [metrosantiago.cl]. Photo [skyscrapercity.com]: Baquedano station holds the 15 m wide sculpture "El Puente" from 1999 by Osvaldo Peña.
