Traveling by metro through a new city is such an exhilarating experience. It feels almost surreal that you can travel in underground corridors from one side of a city to another.
If you love metro systems as much as me, here are four metro systems in cities throughout the world that you absolutely must check out.
New York City MTA
The world’s largest and most extensive subway system is the New York City MTA, with a grand total of over 450 stations. Its stations are full of life, including local art, musicians, and food. It might not be the cleanest, but it’s certainly one of the most impressive.
Dubai Metro
This ultra-modern metro was opened in 2009 and is considered one of the best and most modern systems in the world. It’s a cool respite from the hot environment of Dubai’s streets, helping locals and tourists alike traverse the city.
London Underground
The “Tube” is the oldest metro system, as parts of it opened in 1864. The iconic “mind the gap” announcements are only a small portion of this extensive system’s charm, an indispensable resource for all visitors to the English capital.
Moscow Metro
Looking for elegance and beauty in metro stations? Look no further than the absolutely gorgeous design of the Moscow Metro. Here, you might find yourself getting lost in the architectural beauty of the stations and missing your train!
