The MRT Wanda-Zhonghe-Shulin line (Wanda line for short) starts from the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall Station and then runs westward along Nanhai Road and Xizang Road in Zhongzheng District, and Wanda Road in Wanhua District, Taipei City, Zhongshan Road, Liancheng Road in Zhonghe District, Jincheng Road in Tucheng District, and Shulin District, New Taipei City, and ends at Huilong Station on the Zhonghe-Xinlu line. This line has a route of 22.1km, including underground and elevated sections, and is built with 11 underground stations and 11 elevated stations (one depot included). In the future, through systems integration and IC cards integration, passengers riding on the Wanda line can transit to the in-service Xindian line, Circular line, Tucheng line, and Xinzhuang line, so as to improve the accessibility in Taipei City and New Taipei City for mutual prosperity and greater international competitiveness.
The entire Wanda line is themed as "Green.Rhythm". Thus, the MRT art of this project follows the theme, "Green.Rhythm". Under the main theme of "Green.Rhythm", each station on this line is assigned with a sub-theme that corresponds with the station design, for which one representative plant or a set of colors or shapes is selected for station design presentation. The design presentation is made visible at two sites at each station: glass railings that divide paid areas and free areas at the concourse level and artwork lightboxes at sidewalls along rails to enhance stations' identity and reflect on the art theme of the Wanda line. The representative plants for stations are as follows:
