- Unique Moscow Metro Stations
Moscow metro is by right considered an architectural memorial. It was opened on May 15, 1935. Best architects
of Moscow built up the underground. Such stations as «Dvoretz Sovietov» (The «Palace of Soviets»), «Krasnie
Vorota» («Red Gates»), «Sokolniki» and «Mayakovskaya» were awarded the Grand-prix at international exhibitions
in Brussels and Paris. Facing the first stations took more marble than all the tsar palaces in pre-revolution
Russia. During the Great Patriotic war the metro was used as a bomb-shelter. Today Moscow metro has over 160
stations on 11 lines. Beside commonly known lines, there is a mysterious «Metro-2» which links governmental
buildings in the center of the city with a mythical underground town at the suburbs of the capital.
- High-Rises in Moscow are houses of 26-32 floors built at the end of the 40s - beginning of the 50s of the last
century according to an indivisible town-planning idea and in a single architectural style. They are buildings
of Moscow University, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, hotels «Leningradskaya» and «Ukraine», administrative and
dwelling buildings in two central squares of Moscow. The most well-known of them is the main building of Moscow
University at the Vorobyovy Gory (Sparrow Hills) which is 238 m tall and is one of the symbols of Moscow.
