Extended data:

In the 1980s, air-raid shelters began to develop in the direction of giving consideration to wartime functions and social and economic benefits. So part of Xining's air-raid shelter became a merchant's warehouse-because it was warm in winter and cool in summer, it was an ideal storage place for fruits and vegetables, while the other part became a desolate place with overgrown weeds and locked doors.

In the 1990s, with the development of economy, the new "air-raid shelter" changed from one floor to two or more floors. They are no longer confined to mountainous areas or suburbs, but scattered underground in downtown areas and exist in the form of underground commercial streets, which not only play a commercial role in peacetime, but also ensure the use of concealed air defense fortifications in wartime.
