Abstract Metros are not only important traffic facilities, but also organize urban life in complex ways and create unique and important urban experiences. Using theory of mobilities, this essay views passengers' metro ride as important spatial practice, and analyzes daily social interactions initiated by Shanghai metro mobilities, and explores how the unique human-land relationship is made possible by the mediation of metro technology. It is found that: 1)The operation of the Shanghai metro particularly relies on specific rules as guarantees, but the implementation of these rules shows great flexibility. Operators propagate and maintain rules through symbolization and materialization, making rules serve spatial safety and efficiency; Passengers not only passively abide by the rules, but also actively misappropriate or even transform the rules, transforming operators into supervised objects. 2)The Shanghai metro provides special and important public spaces for people to participate in urban life in a tangible way. The relative closeness of the metro directs people's attention towards the interior of the space. 3)The communication media that follow passengers into the metro initiate mediated riding experience, expand the social relations of metro space through "perpetual contact", reconstruct metro spatiality by creating multiple situations, which promote the generation of "hybrid space" based on "compound mobilities". "Contract space," "performative space" and "hybrid space" constitute three facets of the spatiality generated by the interaction and mutual construction between metro technology and the human bodies. The metro provides possibilities for complex social interactions and public life, and is transformed into "mobile city" with unique rhythm and significance due to people's daily communicative and spatial practices.
