Moscow's Metro stations together amount to the most beautiful
public transport facility in the world. Visitors to Moscow should
not miss taking a ride on this glorious underground rail system,
and exploring the stations. Each one has its own distinct aesthetic
identity, variously adorned with Realist artworks, chandeliers,
ornate pillars and marble floors. Moscow's metro caters to two and
half billion passenger rides per year, making it the second most
used underground metro system in the world. Despite this, the
stations are more akin to palaces or 5-star hotel lobbies rather
than functional spaces. The depth of the elevators is also
astounding.
