Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro has 236 stations, including six on the Moscow Monorail and 31 on the Moscow Central Circle, making it one of the biggest metro systems in the world. With a 397.3 km route length, it is the fifth-longest metro system in the world. If the Moscow Monorail and the Moscow Central Circle are included, the distance is 456 km. The Moscow Metro, which opened in 1935, had over 2 billion annual riders, placing it sixth in the world, according to figures from 2018.

One of the stations, "Park Pobedy," is noteworthy since it is the third-deepest metro station at a depth of 84 meters. The many metro stations in Moscow are stunning examples of Socialist Realist art and architecture. They were created to be "palaces of the people." The metro system is not only a fascinating window into the history of the city but also a quick and inexpensive means to move around the Russian capital.

A must-see item on every trip to the Russian capital is the metro system in Moscow, which is a museum unto itself. Long marble hallways, interesting murals with Soviet themes, and golden sculptures are all incredibly attractive.
