    ©Margarita Fedina ©Margarita MOSCOW METRO Stations of the Moscow Metro — "underground palaces of Moscow" — make one of the main sights of a city. They are distinguished by a really palatial magnificence of vestibules and underground halls. Stations of the capital Metro are the monuments of architecture inseparably linked with history of Moscow and the whole country in which all stages of development of national architecture were embodied. "Mayakovskaya" is considered one of the most beautiful stations. "Revolution Square", "Kropotkinskaya", "Komsomolskaya" (belt-line), "Novoslobodskaya" and others are considered the most interesting architectural monuments of 1930—50 th . Over twenty kinds of marble, labradorite, granite, porphyry, rhodonite, onyx and other breeds of building stone were used in Moscow Metro construction. Underground complexes are decorated by statues and reliefs, monumental and decoration compositions (painting, mosaic, stained-glass windows and lists) of art directors of the country. Architects and builders of Moscow underground aspired to create not only comfortable conditions for passengers, but also to give an individual shape to each station. * Information from "Touristic Information Center" Ticket type Period of validity Price (RUB) Tickets for a limited number of rides: 1 ride 40 5 days, incl. day of purchase 2 rides 80 5 rides 160 11 rides 90 days, incl. day of purchase 320 20 rides 540 Smart cards for unlimited number of rides: 1-day smart card 24 hours after the first activation 210 All tickets and smart cards purchased in ticket offices are non-returnable and non-exchangeable. www.engl.mosmetro.ru .

  • Romanov News Новости Романовых
    Romanov News Новости Романовых By Paul Kulikovsky №89 August 2015 A procession in memory of Tsarevich Alexei was made for the twelfth time A two-day procession in honor of the birth of the last heir to the Russian throne - St. Tsarevich Alexei, was made for the twelfth time on August 11-12 from Tsarskoye Selo to Peterhof. The tradition of the procession was born in 2004 - says the coordinator of the procession Vladimir Znahur - The icon painter Igor Kalugin gave the church an icon of St. Tsarevich. We decided that this icon should visit the Lower dacha, where the Tsarevich was born. We learned that in "Peterhof" in 1994 was a festival dedicated to the last heir to the imperial throne. We decided to go in procession from the place where they lived in the winter - from Tsarskoye Selo. Procession begins with Divine Liturgy at the Tsar's Feodorovsky Cathedral and then prayer at the beginning of the procession. The cross procession makes stops at churches and other significant sites. We called the route of our procession "From Sadness to Joy." They lived in the Alexander Palace in Tsarskoye Selo, loved it, there was born the Grand Duchess Olga. But this palace became a prison for the last of the Romanovs, where they then went on their way of the cross. It was in this palace the Tsarevich celebrated his last birthday", - says Vladimir. The next morning, after the Liturgy, we go to the birthplace of the Tsarevich - "Peterhof". Part of the procession was led by the clergy of the Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul in Peterhof, Archpriest Mikhail Teryushov and Vladimir Chornobay.

  • Foreword from the Head of Moscow Metro 3 Events of the Year 4
    Foreword from the head of Moscow Metro 3 Events of the year 4 Performance indicators 20 Metro staff 30 Development and technical upgrade 44 Safety and security 50 International activity 56 Future development 62 1 The year 2012 can certainly be described as a year of great accomplishments, including the opening of new stations, reconstruction of existing facilities and metro technical systems. This year we have introduced a new section “Novogireevo” – “Novokosino” on the Kalininskaya line”, that allows now quick, convenient and reliable mode of transport to be provided to almost 200,000 inhabitants of the district. Besides, the metro map shows the long-awaited station ”Alma-Atinskaya” on the Zamoskvoretskaya line and the station “Pyatnitskoye shosse” in the Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya Foreword from the head line. The future of Moscow transport system is unthinkable without development of the metro, which plays a key role in the city’s public transport of Moscow Metro system. The Moscow Metro management carries out all the changes planned and appointed by the Moscow Government by paying as much attention to the demand of Muscovites and guests of the capital as possible. By 2020, 67 new stations are planned to be constructed. At present, we prioritize the construction of the Exterior interchange circuit line with the phased commissioning of line sections, the extension of the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya line from station “Maryina roshcha” to the northern areas of the city by 2015. Also the construction of the new Kozhukhovskaya line from the station “Aviamotornaya” to the station “Nekrasovka. By 2017, the Kalininsko-Solntsevskaya line will be formed and operated between the station “Novokosino” and the districts, Solntsevo and Novo-Peredelkino.
