Free Tour Moscow Metro "Underground Palace"
Tour description
We will meet at the Monument (statue) of Karl Marx. A 2 minute walk will find the Teatralnaya station. Here we will begin our guided tour of the Moscow metro. Since its inauguration in 1935 the Moscow metro is one of the most important in the world. Its stations are true palaces, built mainly in Soviet times for the use and enjoyment of the proletariat. We will start by taking the green line, 2, from Teatralnaya to the sumptuous Mayakovskaya station. In it we will contemplate its mosaics dedicated to aviation and its futuristic decoration. Our next stop will be Belorusskaya station. Its impressive white coffered ceiling with borders will surprise us as you walk through the halls. From here we will take the brown circular line (the 5) to Novoslobodskaya station. When walking through it we will believe in being in a sacred place, since it is decorated with numerous stained glass windows. Following the circular we will reach Komsomolskaya, one of the most beautiful stations of the Moscow metro. Its baroque ceilings painted yellow will transport us to a palatial atmosphere. Our last stop in the circular line will be the Kiyevskaya mosaics. In this station we will take the dark blue line, the 3, to the bronze sculptures of Ploshchad Revolyutsii.
