Hallo / Goedendag
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 (8โ9 am, 5:30โ7 pm) when carriages are wall-to-wall.
Cycling is the dominant mode of transport โ stay out of bike lanes. Almost everyone speaks English.
