On the way back to the ship from our day tour, we made a quick stop
to ride a few stops on the pristine St. Petersburg Metro.
The St. Petersburg underground opened in 1955 and is full of

They are also some of the deepest lines and stations in the world.
The cars are much larger than what I'm used to here in London.
No advertising and everything was so clean.
