Moscow's metro system is one of the busiest in the world. The stations look pretty neat too:

Yes, they are.

The next station on the line is less spectacular, but still a lot nicer than many metro stations around the world. It looks like a museum:

Interesting. That place looks fairly clean. I don't see any dirt. The architecture is really pretty too.

I know; it's not like here, where there's loads of graffiti.

Well, that, and I suspect that anyone who did spoil them with graffiti would be sent to Siberia :P .

But, joking aside, I bet they do. They have something they can take pride in, after all.

Moscow is a city of theaters. Even " Moscow New Opera Theater " has been also enjoyed by me when i was there for business purposes. I know that before leaving for Moscow , one of my fried shared this fact with me that i should not miss the Moscow theaters. Finally when i got a show in Moscow New Opera Theater then i concluded this,that Moscow is really a land of theaters.
