The striking thing about St.
The striking thing about St. Petersburg's amazing subway system (like Moscow's) is that it is extremely deep. It was dug by nearly free peasant labor in the 1930s and—after a break for World War II—finished in the 1950s. While London's impressive system feels rickety, St. Petersburg's feels industrial-strength and bomb-hardened. Getting around by metro is second nature for locals. Today millions of citizens who use the system spend a good part of their lives—about an hour a week—riding escalators like this.
