As a tunnel engineer I have to dedicate a special chapter to the Metro in Moscow. It’s the easiest, quickest and cheapest way of getting around in this city. Many of the older stations are marble faced or frescoed – real art pieces.
You rarely wait longer than two minutes on the platform before the train arrives. Nonetheless, it may get packed during rush hour. Up to 9 million people a day ride the metro – more than the London and New York City system combined.
