Moscow Insider Tip

The Moscow Metro is a tourist attraction in itself โ€” stations like Komsomolskaya, Mayakovskaya, and Novoslobodskaya are palatial with mosaics, marble, and chandeliers. Buy a Troika card at any station; a single swipe costs far less than tourist day passes. Avoid rush hour (8โ€“9 am, 5:30โ€“7 pm) when carriages are wall-to-wall.

Amsterdam Insider Tip

Cycling is the dominant mode of transport โ€” stay out of bike lanes. Almost everyone speaks English.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Moscow Fun Fact

Moscow's Metro is the busiest in Europe and among the world's most architecturally spectacular โ€” Stalin ordered each station to be a 'palace for the people.' The deepest station, Park Pobedy, is 84 metres underground, deeper than any London Underground station, and its murals depict Russian military victories from 1812 and 1945.

๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Amsterdam Fun Fact

Amsterdam has more bicycles than residents and over 1,500 bridges crossing its famous canals.
