The Moscow Underground is the most convenient in the world. An excellent ventilation system provides fresh air and an even temperature the year round. The spacious underground passages and platforms are brightly lighted and decorated with granite, black labradorite, polished oak and walnut, ceramics and plate glass, as well as marble which comes from the Caucasus, the Crimea, the Ural Mountains and Central Asia. Every station is a remarkable example of beauty and elegance.
