๐ฆ๐บ Sydney
G'day / Hey
The Moscow Metro is a tourist attraction in itself โ stations like Komsomolskaya, Mayakovskaya, and Novoslobodskaya are palatial with mosaics, marble, and chandeliers. Buy a Troika card at any station; a single swipe costs far less than tourist day passes. Avoid rush hour (8โ9 am, 5:30โ7 pm) when carriages are wall-to-wall.
Australians value informality โ don't be too formal. Outdoor culture is huge; beaches are free and public.
๐ท๐บ Moscow Fun Fact
Moscow's Metro is the busiest in Europe and among the world's most architecturally spectacular โ Stalin ordered each station to be a 'palace for the people.' The deepest station, Park Pobedy, is 84 metres underground, deeper than any London Underground station, and its murals depict Russian military victories from 1812 and 1945.
๐ฆ๐บ Sydney Fun Fact
Sydney Opera House has over 1 million roof tiles and took 14 years to build, finishing in 1973.
