Metro
The metro is the most popular way of transportation among Muscovites and guests of the capital.
Half of the total daily passenger traffic passes through it every day.
In terms of the quality of structures, expressiveness of the architectural ensemble, technical equipment, operational characteristics and comfort, the metro of the capital significantly surpasses foreign subways.
Each station is unique and looks like a museum with beautiful mosaics, huge chandeliers, bas-reliefs and columns.
It is worth noting: a big plus is the availability of free wi-fi in the metro.
Metro map
The Moscow Metro ranks first in Europe in terms of load intensity. In total, the metro has 12 lines with a length of more than three hundred kilometers and 207 stations.
At first, a beginner can get confused in the intertwining of subway lines, but they are all united by one circular line. For the convenience of passengers, signs in Russian and English are placed on the walls, floor, ceiling of the station.
Opening hours
All metro stations operate from 06.00 to 01.00 without lunch breaks and weekends. After closing, the last train goes to the terminal station.
Fare
Currently, there are several types of metro passes:
- The "Single Ticket" card is a universal, simplified travel ticket for all types of public transport. One trip will cost 55 rubles, respectively, two will cost 110 rubles.
- The limit for one or two trips is valid for five days, for twenty or more trips it is valid for three months. The higher the travel limit, the lower the fare. A travel card for 20 trips costs 720 rubles, for 40 - 1440, for 60 - 1700. Thus, one route with a single card for 20 trips will cost 36 rubles. This is undoubtedly a nice bonus for those planning to stay in Moscow for a week or more.
- Card "90 minutes". This card is valid for 90 minutes. One trip costs 65 rubles, two - 130 rubles. A travel pass for 60 trips or more will cost 2650 rubles.
- Strelka and Troika electronic cards. They can be used to pay for travel on public transport. Upon receipt at the box office, you must leave a deposit of 50 rubles. You can replenish the balance on the card from any terminal or using the special mobile application "Moscow Metro". The cost of one ride in the metro, monorail and ground transport with the Troika card will be only 36 rubles. The card is valid for five years.
- There are also social passes for students, Muscovites and retirees. A variety of travel cards have been issued for various anniversaries and holidays. For example, a travel card dedicated to the year since the founding of the collectors' society.
A few recommendations for those who first came to the metro:
- The stations have four or more exits to the city and, in order not to waste time, you need to move in advance closer to the center, beginning, end of the car.
- Also, in order to save time, it is necessary to remember the numbers of the cars that stop closest to the escalator.
- It is advisable, without an urgent need, not to get into the subway during rush hours, which fall in the early morning (07.00 - 09.00) and in the evening (17.00 - 20.00), since it will not be easy for a beginner to navigate in space in a massive influx of people.
- Stations when moving to the center are announced by the voice of a man, in the opposite direction - by women. On the ring line: stations are announced clockwise with the voice of a man, counterclockwise with the voice of a woman.
Land transport
Buses, trolleybuses, trams are no less popular types of ground public transport among Muscovites. The route network of city buses covers not only the territory of the capital, but also nearby settlements.

Ticket prices
The price of one ticket on the bus for one trip is 55 rubles. You can buy it from the bus driver or use the “Unified” travel card, which is sold at the metro ticket office or at the ticket office at the bus stop.
