I used metro in Moscow and St. Petersburg. They were not so difficult as expected. My tips how to use moscow metro. 1. Print station and line no. in Russian. Ignore English. 2. In Moscow. We can buy each ride 22 Rub at KACCA (booth). Or we can buy more rides for cheaper. I bought 2 rides (44 Rub) to... more

I love the Moscow Metro. I used to go by it for many times. It is the most beutifull architectual museum of the Stalin time. more

We found Moscow very beatiful.The efficiency with the way trains all run on time is excellent.Lucky I could read russian as getting around a Metro is like a maze for a person that has no knowledge of the language and if you ask directions people are not very willing to help.I found people mostly sad and in their own world.It... more

We did a self-guided tour of the Moscow Metro stations and it was well worth the time and effort. People were so helpful when we had trouble getting to the correct level to find the correct subway line. It was indeed as interesting and beautiful as the descriptions we had read.

At least I am not really interested in spending too much time examining aging metro stations... more

If you go to Moscow be sure to take the Metro. Is easy to use, cheaper then a cab, and has many beautiful stations at the stops within the brown ring (constisting of marble, artwork, bronze statues...thanks to stalin) The cost is 19R one way. Buy a scan card at the booth and ask for a Metro map. To get... more

The Moscow Metro has been undergoing a lengthy facelift on some of its Stations. Some of the Stations have been closed down for serious renovation, and hopefully for the better. The Moscow Metro is a worthwhile experience to look at each Station for its style and decoration. Some are still in the old school Communist decor, while others are more... more

By traveling from station to station in the center of Moscow, and getting off at each one to look at the decorative artwork which adorns each, you can see one of the things which really sets Moscow apart from just about any other place in the world. As the previous reviewer noted, the artwork is perhaps a bit dated, but... more
