Nice vlog. beautiful city.

[@ericelliott227]

Many metro stations in Russia and all are art worthy and beautiful and....amazingly clean! Russia takes pride in what they do. You will never find such a station that looks like that anywhere in the US. In fact, our subway or metro stations are not places you want to be one second longer than needed.

[@ArchYeomans]

USA has the biggest rats in underground rail systems. We are proud of this.

[@mikemikeetoo9094]

Wow Russian subway stations are so beautiful!! In Canada our subway stations look like crap compared to Russian's! Maybe those great russian subways station are a result of socialism by making great what belongs to the community!

Hello from the U.S. Sergey 👋. I would love to visit.

[@MonsterTVchannel]

I just had my first vacation to St Petersburg. Such a beautiful place. Everyone was so friendly. I'm already planning my next trip.

[@kansascityonline]

Ive been in most all Western European metros. This one by far is the most fascinating I have seen. Thanks for sharing.

[@can-wj5ji]

Very beautiful there nice interior design unfortunately in the west the tax payer s dollars go to smut ads and anti drug overdoses kits like your videos peace brother

Hello Sergey. "Piter" is a beautiful city. I'm waiting for summer, then there must be a cruise on the canals Moyka, Fontanka ( and Neva river ) You will show sometime Спортивный комплекс Юбилейный ?

[@StalinTheMan0fSteel]

I'm sure the metro would make a good fallout shelter. Probably the architects had that in the back of their minds when laying out the plans. 😉

[@samuelcruz8485]

Oh Artyom. Did you hear that.

[@vitaliyzakharov6708]

The stations are officially fallout shelters. There's massive blast doors that completely seal them and the ventialtion systems have filtration against fallout.

Have you played Metro Exodus video game? It is fun.

[@MrQbenDanny]

BRAVO!!! No garbage, rats carrying pizza and eating pizza, homeless wondering around urinating, aggressive panhandling, fights, loud behavior, drug dealing, eating McDonalds and throwing leftovers on platform, rotten smell,.robbery, Guess where I live...

[@tonyrome3119]

very impressive, just beautiful. reminds me of subway system in Kiev. I remember that high pitch roar of the subway as it accelerates. Subway corridors in Kiev are not as bright but very beautiful also. Hail to the former Soviet Union

[@AlexMoonXXI]

New Russian subway trains are noiseless.

[@SovietClassic]

@Mor Dor , what a difference? new russian stations look the same as soviet stations

[@bigmurff]

Hello from San Francisco! Thank you for showing how everyday St. Petersburg experience is like. Really nice metro station. Our metro is called BART and most stations are not as clean and artistic as yours.

[@roberthagedorn290]

One thing that comes through loud and clear in your videos is that Russians have great respect and admiration for city public facilities, which are clean and beautiful. In the U.S., there is no respect or admiration for public facilities--these facilities, at least in the cities, are filthy and in disrepair, like the rest of the city. I also wonder if there is an escalator anywhere that is longer than the one in this video? What happens when the escalator needs to be repaired? Do the passengers have to use steps somewhere else in the station? It would be a long walk down and a long walk up. I am hoping you will take us next into a car of the train that is stopping at the end of this video, Sergey. Thank you so much for a truly unusual and beautiful video.

[@IvanSolodovnikov1986]

This station has four escalators (two in each direction during rush hours), therefore reliability is high enough. If, for example, both descending escalators get broken according to Murphy's law, one of the two ascending ones can be reversed. This will increase the queue but will still allow people to use the system instead of going on foot.

[@roberthagedorn290]

[@SigmaRho2922]

The metro only has seven stations that have a depth of less than 110 feet (three on line 1 opened in the 1950s, two on line 3 opened in 2018, and two on line 5 opened in 2019). These stations are located north and south of the city center, along with 5 surface terminal stations.

Ahhh - Nostalgia! :-) One decade ago, I went through this station many times - and compared to other stations, I enjoyed every visit. People relax on escalators - read books or watch KZbin ... :-) Аааа - Ностальгия! :-) Одно десятилетие назад я проходил эту станцию много раз - и по сравнению с другими станциями я наслаждался каждым посещением. Люди отдыхают на эскалаторах - читают книги или смотрят KZbin… :-)

[@TT-zd6nr]

I have just realised that though we drive on the left in the UK, we stand on the right on escalators. I assume it is because most of us are right handed and so grip the rail. Weird!

[@AlexMoonXXI]

I am surprised that in many London's Underground stations there are no escalators. Only large elevators: /

[@TT-zd6nr]

@@AlexMoonXXI the last elevator (i.e. lift) I used on the London Underground was at the Angel and that was removed in the early 1990s! In 20 years since of using the system I have never used an elevator.

[@janeadams9392]

@Mor Dor thanks for the reply and the information on the Metro.

[@IvanSolodovnikov1986]

However projects did exist even in the end of the 19th century. Unfortunately, the three Russian revolutions have destroyed a lot and delayed the process for decades. But the worst thing was the Siege of Leningrad in 1941-43.

[@kathleenaltherr6836]

[@janninehodgson2815]

We were pick pocketed in this metro by a very well known gang (known to the poilice) , Felt a bit stupid as they caught us of guard. It was a minor hiccup and a wasted day trying to sort it out at the police station. Will definatley come back again as i absolutley fell in love with Moscow and St petersbug we did not spend enough time there to see everything and take in the AMAZING food. We did get to see alot of the metro stations though and they are stunningly beautiful.
