in a new machine that will start to escape from the sweltering temperatures above the new place to go to steep please. let i just see you get lost and freeze on the streets program i'll be taking you on it's will have an art gallery and i'm museum a lot and i call it symbolizes the infrastructure at its best shrouded in history amazing facts and figures and also some fascinating legends yes it's a mosque i match our. lives on with modelers a and skull to school or reading is a visual traits a one size it's not the oldest in the world the most in london the pounds were drawn up during the smallest time split just the outbreak of the first world war

and the revolution construction of a began. but eventually the bolsheviks time that public transport dream into a reality. in moscow metro from the airplanes on the fifteenth of may nineteenth french fries. but it's not just another brick to transport system it's one of the most impressive. of the soviet era it's grand the breathtaking it was built as a visual proof of the socialist state's power. one of the best things about the most a metro puffiness cape in the batting so the size of the trains at least on the time tell that to the london underground. controvert square in the kremlin it's one of the main tourist attractions in the capital a must see for any visitor. from commuters rubbing very strong statues to good luck to fascinating stories behind the peaceful mistakes it's
