Time Out says

This is perhaps the most eye-popping stations in the MRT Blue line extension. Painted in bright red, the station features AR-equipped drawings by artist Phannapast Taychamaythakool depicting the life of Chinese immigrants in the old times alongside images of dragons
and mystical beasts. (Note: the art is commissioned by a coffee brand, and is temporary). The walls of escalators climbing up to the ground level is decorated with intricate Chinese patterns as a reference to the décor of Wat Mangkorn Kamalawat, one of the most reputed Chinese temples in the neighborhood.
