The Moscow Metro is another example of Russia's love of the grandiose and extravagance – the place feels like it was made exclusively for royalty. Everything is bigger or more detailed than other metros I've been on – the tunnels are high and bright and some stations feel like they came straight out of the Hermitage, while others feel like they're from the future. If I knew my way to a destination and had used that line before, I'd deliberately invent a different route with different lines and transfers, just to explore other stations.
