It's because they close it every night for the maintenance. And the cops are literally everywhere, and they won't let you mess around, having a right to detain anyone they don't like for any reason. But in general he's right. Metro in Moscow is pretty well organized. It's paid with oil money at the cost of extreme poverty of other regions. There is low to zero regional budget, as 85% of money go to Moscow and solely Moscow decides how much money do regions get and what can they do with it. So right now Moscow is the cheapest from all EU capitals, and pretty well developed. But you remember that there is a price for everything, and you know the rules or end up in prison. You keep your mouth shut, you're pretending you're "100% apolitical", you don't open your mind to anyone as they will turn you over in a second. Primitive patriotism is what's expected from you.

As a Pole living in an area were public transportation is relatively well-developed, the Moscow metro shocks me as well. Its glamor, its decorations, its design - never seen anything like it. No wonder Dmitry Glukhovsky chose it for the setting of a post-nuclear book series (and an amazing one, too) considering all the lore surrounding it.
For me as an infrastructure fan, I think the overall design of the train lines is more impressive. Many many lines travel to neighborhoods very far from city center, and you can easily move between outer parts of the city without having to transfer at a central station because of the multiple concentric loops that make this possible. More subway systems throughout the world should be designed with this kind of travel in mind.
Dmitry Glukhovsky currently lives abroad due to his wanted status and prison sentence in Russia for his criticism of the Russian government and the war in Ukraine.
Those stations in Moscow are beautiful. The U.S. has Nothing like it here. The U.S. city rail systems are always late/break downs. Incredibly filthy. I have openly seen Rats in both of the New York, and Boston rail ways.
Culture… it’s a beautiful thing Not to offend anyone (which I probably will since speaking the truth always does) - this comes to mind when I think “why?”… just an observation… Americans also like filthy cars (French fries on the floor, sand, used fast food wrappers and random dirty clothes and receipts and cigarette butts and stains and splotches of spilled sugary beverages on interior and the list goes on), don’t respect the traffic laws nor really care to learn them thoroughly, don’t take their shoes off in the house, don’t care if they invite a guest over into a filthy home, enjoy a lot of finger food, littering in Walmart parking lot, parking crooked, looking like a gremlin in pajamas and crocks with socks, and so on… the list goes on and on… Meanwhile in Russia it’s the exact opposite, it’s a thing of culture - a common understanding among the people “we don’t want to be grimy fools”… and other places where high culture still exists and hasn’t been ruined by laziness, debt, poor education, and mass media propaganda… But as I said… no offense. I am just pointing out things that are blatantly obvious to me when I look at Russia and U.S… and yes, I have both citizenships and have spent 50% of my life in both places living, working, etc… Russia has its pros and cons like any other place but as far as everything goes, I actually enjoy it more in Russia than I do in the U.S… in my perspective, the US is only really good for its nature and money making potential. I feel more democratic and free in Russia, I enjoy going to people’s homes and getting in their clean nice smelling cars, I enjoy the women who are all well kept, feminine, and beautiful, and I enjoy that I am expected to open the door for all women and elderly people everywhere I go as a gentleman, and offer a hand to any familiar woman getting off the bus or escalator, and I enjoy getting up in the bus for any woman so she can sit while I stand, and I enjoy scolding any neighbor who decides it’s a good idea to stub a cigarette butt out on the wall of the high rise apartment building staircase or who leaves trash improperly, and everyone around me is likeminded, respectful, clean, disciplined, quick, and kind. When I am in America, most people are kind, I appreciate that, but that’s just not even the bare minimum… it’s just humanity. Not culture… culture is a step above.

Rode it in 2018 during the World Cup. Was amazed by it. One thing I hated is that each track is for one line, making some transfers incredibly long. Almost a half mile long!
A little mistake here regarding the depth of the stations. There are no stations deeper than 80 meters as mentioned in the video. The deepest station in Moscow metro is Park Pobedy at 73 meters deep. The depth was not primarily for the purpose of nuclear shelter. They were built like that in order to avoid damaging the infrastructure on the surface. That's why most stations in the city center area are bulit at the depth of 60 meters. For example, many stations of northern part of line 10 are built at 60 - 65 meters deep, because there are a lot of densely populated areas over there. In less populated areas stations are being dug out, so it is a lot cheaper and easier to build (these stations are usually issued at 15 - 30 meters deep). However, it usually creates problems with loud noises and enourmous construction sites, which is an inconvenience for most citizens.
on "chill" hours time is encresed up to 3 mins, if it super late (like 1^00) - up to 5 mins. in 1:00 the last train is starting its last ride on each line(and you can ride with working men) and in that time entering doors of subway are closed (security will let u out, obviously). so, somewhere at 3:00 subway is fully closed. also, if train is going to depo - a man with check out if anyone is still sitting, but sometimes they do not watch at all and u can go to depo. ye, its illegal, but its not so serious. if ure caught, u should just pay a fine. its not jail stuff crime (idk law term for this).
I’m currently in China right now, and I’ve ridden the metro in places like Chongqing, Wuhan, Xiamen, and Guangzhou so here are my thoughts. Yes, China’s metros also put the U.S. city transport to shame Yes, Moscows is the most efficient because I’ve always had to wait on average 5 minutes for the next train to arrive Yes, Americans would be shocked because I see westerners shocked by the Chinese metro systems, they would certainly be shocked by Moscow’s
@@PLASMAMATE we are not talking about the systems as such. Vienna also as a great subway system. And it still sucks (Says me as an Austrian, though living now in Moscow).
Actually some of these stations are this deep mostly because the constructors needed to avoid ground waters. Moscow stands on crazy number of rivers and water reservoirs which are really deep or located under the ground
No, the reason it’s so deep is that the groundwater reservoirs in Russia are fairly shallow, so they had to build it a long while underground. But yes, I suppose it could double as a nuclear shelter.
По размеру конечно нет, а вот по надежности, даже не смей сомневаться😂 это московская «святая корова», в часы пик поезда отходят с интервалом в 80-90 секунд
...and the stations look absolutely gorgeous! Though a downside of the deep stations: you'll have to add at least five minutes to every ride just for the endless escalators, so for on or two stop rides you might often just as well walk.

The second metro is not a myth but a reality. I know someone who used it. It's nowhere near as beautiful as the main metro though, looks more like a technical space, and the trains are obviously very small, the trains ride around every half an hour. There is one place when you ride the main metro, if you look close enough in the tonnel you would be able to see the other line, however, you need to know where to look.
Blah blah i live in st. Petersburg in Russia and life is pretty good here. Why everyone says propaganda when something goes against their beliefs unless they are so narrow-minded that can't accept the truth 😑.

They realty think that Russia and Moscow are something dirty, scary and dangerous. And when I tell them that Moscow or any other Russian city is so much safer than any American lol they think I overwatched Russian propaganda. And doesn’t matter I’m from Russia, my family and my friends live in Russia. Everything is propaganda 😂😂
the subway is good but there are definitely addicts and homeless people here, usually the police will just lead them out. i like the fact that as a student or an elderly person or war veteran/retiree you can get a card that you'll either renew every month for a set price (last time i did it it was about 4,5$) for students and pupils and free for eldely etc (also if you've lost one of your caretakers/guardian and you're a student you can apply for monthly financial aid and a free pass for 4 years or so depending on your degree and how long you're supposed to study at university). but the lines and stations can be confusing although there are signs everywhere

One of the things that really stood out to me when I read Eleanor Roosevelt's book, was that we had bred these amazing meat cows. We gave a herd of them to the soviet Union to help with food shortages. When she went back years later to see how their breeding program was doing, they told her all the cows were at the head of government's...
When I was in Moscow/MOCKBA 31 years ago, taking the escalator down was like being in a sci-fi movie as the escalator just kept going down. I paid 3 rubles (800 rubles = USD1) so I paid 0.375 US cent.
Moscow metro is 3 times as long and services another 1 billion people annually than HK. And in 2018 they got train times down to 80 seconds which even I find hard to believe.
Metro is not designed to function as a nuclear shelter. It simply can not, because a real nuclear shelter is specifically designed for designated number of people to hide in it for certain period of time, and there are supplies of water, food, etc. Yet, the metro was used as a bomb shelter during the war, like in London. And the reason it is such deep is that the engineers bypassed ground waters, ground collisions, and another geological features of Moscow region by simply building the metro system deeper. Moscow is located on a very difficult terrain.
Pretty sure that Moscow metro had an adequate supply of food and water in it. During the Soviet time, the only canned food available in stores was near its expiration date. It was rumored to have been stored in nuclear shelters prior to that.
@@ygzpdygzpd700 it can not have enough supply of food and water for Moscow residents. There are no such storages there. And it can not handle air pollution. “Metro 2033” is the most stupid stuff people could imagine, cmon…

Rode it in 2018 during the World Cup. Was amazed by it. One thing I hated is that each track is for one line, making some transfers incredibly long. Almost a half mile long!
Lines 4 and 4A share the track across 4 stations
What's wrong with walking half a mile? It's healthy.
A little mistake here regarding the depth of the stations. There are no stations deeper than 80 meters as mentioned in the video. The deepest station in Moscow metro is Park Pobedy at 73 meters deep. The depth was not primarily for the purpose of nuclear shelter. They were built like that in order to avoid damaging the infrastructure on the surface. That's why most stations in the city center area are bulit at the depth of 60 meters. For example, many stations of northern part of line 10 are built at 60 - 65 meters deep, because there are a lot of densely populated areas over there. In less populated areas stations are being dug out, so it is a lot cheaper and easier to build (these stations are usually issued at 15 - 30 meters deep). However, it usually creates problems with loud noises and enourmous construction sites, which is an inconvenience for most citizens.
That looks like a Underground Palace
It was constructed as a palace for people.
Show us more Tom, Russian culture is absolutely incredible
What a convincing, natural sounding comment. 🙄
Now that's a Metro!
The American mind couldn't handle this Russian metro station
The American mind does not give a shit what you & your murderous Dictator Putin is doing.
You should visit Tomsk or Ak-Dovurak
on "chill" hours time is encresed up to 3 mins, if it super late (like 1^00) - up to 5 mins. in 1:00 the last train is starting its last ride on each line(and you can ride with working men) and in that time entering doors of subway are closed (security will let u out, obviously). so, somewhere at 3:00 subway is fully closed.
also, if train is going to depo - a man with check out if anyone is still sitting, but sometimes they do not watch at all and u can go to depo. ye, its illegal, but its not so serious. if ure caught, u should just pay a fine. its not jail stuff crime (idk law term for this).
Uhh metro 2033 vibes
In all fairness the New York subway would probably shock most Russians.
Long live Russia
It’s clean it’s not damp, there’s not a pigeon and rat infestation
Wow
How is a Pigeon going to get there when it is deep under ground..lol
@@tonytaylor4545 trust me if you’ve ever been to London you would know what I’m talking about
I’m currently in China right now, and I’ve ridden the metro in places like Chongqing, Wuhan, Xiamen, and Guangzhou so here are my thoughts.
Yes, China’s metros also put the U.S. city transport to shame
Yes, Moscows is the most efficient because I’ve always had to wait on average 5 minutes for the next train to arrive
Yes, Americans would be shocked because I see westerners shocked by the Chinese metro systems, they would certainly be shocked by Moscow’s
Come to Paris,London or Berlin, plenty of Metro system in the West.
@@PLASMAMATE I’ve already been on the tube in London over a decade ago, one day I’d like to ride the metros in Paris and Berlin
@@PLASMAMATE we are not talking about the systems as such.
Vienna also as a great subway system.
And it still sucks (Says me as an Austrian, though living now in Moscow).
You should visit Tomsk or Ak-Dovurak
I was there in the 1980s and some of the stations looked like museums with these gorgeous and massive chandeliers. Absolutely beautiful.
It was myth just until some Metro-2 documents were declassified in 1990s-2010s.
I live in Russia and yes the metro here in amazing compared to other countries cuz they never changed the Soviet theme even
Russian people cannot afford cars...they must depend on the train system.
You should visit Tomsk or Ak-Dovurak
They also built the metro while fighting the NAZI in ww2. They built a metro while fighting a war. That's metal
I have visited it! Guys go to Russia and have a look at the country and the people. You will be impressed.
Ny subway:🐀🗑
Moscow subway:🏫💡
I cant wait to see ur videos about the french metro 😅😂😅😂😂
Moscow gives me Christmas vibes
Thanks, im very happy,because people know only good things about Russia!
From Moscow with love🇷🇺❤️🇺🇸
Clean, efficient, and seems not boring
And also where Artyom more or less accidentally got the Dark Ones killed in 2033
Ok…our country (🇺🇸) needs to take notes on this, that quality is only at our airports right now
Actually some of these stations are this deep mostly because the constructors needed to avoid ground waters. Moscow stands on crazy number of rivers and water reservoirs which are really deep or located under the ground
Beautiful, now it's in my bucket list ❤️
Already way cleaner than the ones in America 😂
Have been on it and taken a tour of the old stations that have beautiful art work 😊
I rode only a very tiny part of their Metro, and not a new part. It is efficient and clean
Puts the MTA to shame
😂
It shocks me, and I'm eastern european
Mad Metro 2033 vibes 😂🫡💯
Also is not a metro but an art museum😍
No, the reason it’s so deep is that the groundwater reservoirs in Russia are fairly shallow, so they had to build it a long while underground. But yes, I suppose it could double as a nuclear shelter.
Not sure they come close to the ones in Tokyo, both in size and reliability.
Was about to say…as far as efficiency goes, Japan remains untouched
По размеру конечно нет, а вот по надежности, даже не смей сомневаться😂 это московская «святая корова», в часы пик поезда отходят с интервалом в 80-90 секунд
Another shocking thing for westerners is that it's clean and safe, so you will not get pushed on tracks or robbed while waiting for metro.
Their government takes care of its people. Period.
Hello!!!!!! Love the vids keep it up! 👍
Looks cool enjoy Russia bro 😃
as a japanese person... i got to say, I'm impressed!
...and the stations look absolutely gorgeous!
Though a downside of the deep stations: you'll have to add at least five minutes to every ride just for the endless escalators, so for on or two stop rides you might often just as well walk.
built with the blood and money of the people.
Bro gulag were already outdated at the time
Tell me you are dumb without telling me you are dumb
Hell yeah
@@ITALIAN_PATRIOT49 funny, my friend was arrested and did 6 months in gulag for protesting for free speech in 2021. check your facts bro. a book is not life
@@lgnfve, the friend's name? Albert Einstein
It was built with slave (gulag) labor
lol, walmart education?
ye, slaves should build technicaly coplex infrastructure like subway, not well educatet engineers.
u could google those who ve built it, but u prefered to paste dreams of ur damaged brain.
Lies, it was built by ordinary people. Besides, gulag is not about slavery you know. They were prisoners.

My metro 2033 addiction is kicking in 😭😭
The second metro is not a myth but a reality. I know someone who used it. It's nowhere near as beautiful as the main metro though, looks more like a technical space, and the trains are obviously very small, the trains ride around every half an hour. There is one place when you ride the main metro, if you look close enough in the tonnel you would be able to see the other line, however, you need to know where to look.
Hello please pin me
Propaganda
Blah blah i live in st. Petersburg in Russia and life is pretty good here. Why everyone says propaganda when something goes against their beliefs unless they are so narrow-minded that can't accept the truth 😑.
Not propaganda
You definitely don't know what propaganda means.
you are propoganda
I don’t know about Europeans but Americans are def brainwashed. My husband is American and I always have fun at his family. They realty think that Russia and Moscow are something dirty, scary and dangerous. And when I tell them that Moscow or any other Russian city is so much safer than any American lol they think I overwatched Russian propaganda. And doesn’t matter I’m from Russia, my family and my friends live in Russia. Everything is propaganda 😂😂
Russians are highly intelligent
And the architecture is fantastic
Been there and it is AMAZING!
metro 2033 gonna be wild
the subway is good but there are definitely addicts and homeless people here, usually the police will just lead them out. i like the fact that as a student or an elderly person or war veteran/retiree you can get a card that you'll either renew every month for a set price (last time i did it it was about 4,5$) for students and pupils and free for eldely etc (also if you've lost one of your caretakers/guardian and you're a student you can apply for monthly financial aid and a free pass for 4 years or so depending on your degree and how long you're supposed to study at university).
but the lines and stations can be confusing although there are signs everywhere
Coming from LA we have a light rail that doesn’t go anywhere and is full of homeless people. SMH 😂
That’s because LA ripped up all its street cars like a billion years ago and the entire city has been car cucked, maybe worse than any other CA city, ever since. LA is just so sprawled out, there’s a reason traffic is so shit.
And to shock paris it's clean and it doesn't stink
The biggest shock is that it's on time all the time 😂
A broken clock is right twice a day!
Except this clock has no numbers, so it's always wrong.
One of the things that really stood out to me when I read Eleanor Roosevelt's book, was that we had bred these amazing meat cows. We gave a herd of them to the soviet Union to help with food shortages. When she went back years later to see how their breeding program was doing, they told her all the cows were at the head of government's...
Да что там Американец, я сама с рождения живу в Москве и сама каждый раз нахожусь в шоке какое метро красивое❤
Schools in US said cover yourselves with a blanket in case of nuclear attacks.
Important thing! Moscow metro don’t work at night (01 - 06 AM₽
When I was in Moscow/MOCKBA 31 years ago, taking the escalator down was like being in a sci-fi movie as the escalator just kept going down. I paid 3 rubles (800 rubles = USD1) so I paid 0.375 US cent.
Metro fans flocking to Russia:
New York subway stations could never
I visited this metro very recently and it’s the best metro I have ever been to
Hong Kongs metro is the best and comes in 2 mins every train and 20 cents for 5 hours
Moscow metro is 3 times as long and services another 1 billion people annually than HK. And in 2018 they got train times down to 80 seconds which even I find hard to believe.
In America, nuclear bunkers are reserved for thr rich and famous
That's any country.
We wouldn't need nuclear bunkers if one country had not actually built and used the Holocaust fireworks in the first place
Metro is not designed to function as a nuclear shelter. It simply can not, because a real nuclear shelter is specifically designed for designated number of people to hide in it for certain period of time, and there are supplies of water, food, etc. Yet, the metro was used as a bomb shelter during the war, like in London. And the reason it is such deep is that the engineers bypassed ground waters, ground collisions, and another geological features of Moscow region by simply building the metro system deeper. Moscow is located on a very difficult terrain.
Pretty sure that Moscow metro had an adequate supply of food and water in it.
During the Soviet time, the only canned food available in stores was near its expiration date. It was rumored to have been stored in nuclear shelters prior to that.
@@ygzpdygzpd700 it can not have enough supply of food and water for Moscow residents. There are no such storages there. And it can not handle air pollution.
“Metro 2033” is the most stupid stuff people could imagine, cmon…
@@Radowid_the_Redanian Source?
@@ygzpdygzpd700 uhm, daily usage of Soviet metro?)
@@Radowid_the_Redanian You can estimate food supplies of the metro by using it?
And if you pay twice a day you will pay only 27 rouble means the half 😉
It’s not the biggest outside of china, it’s the biggest outside of asia.
Those escalators are FAST
Thanks i needed the map for metro 2033
I took the NYC metro system recently and a few times in the past. It's architecturally depressing, rats and personal trash everywhere, the smell is pungent, and most people don't feel safe using it. Our government is horrible at setting examples for developing countries.
Why would you want to set an example for developing countries?? It's like you want to appear superior to them. Gross.
Yes there is another Metro called Object D6.
And some strategic lines. And tsar catacombs under all of them. Moscow stand on more holes than in Swiss cheese
