Oh really!!! I hadn't realised that. Russia is always on my list, I've seen the underground stations, they look so stunning!!!

Tube stations are more or less intact! there are a lot of new, but all what was built in 50-es still look great, both in Moscow and in St.Petersburg. I took some pictures (not enaf yet) and definitely will share them as series of posts... I promised it to Melinda already. 🙏 they really can be considered as an underground museum.
ps. nice to see we are on your list, hehe! SPb is quite a tourist-oriented city.. like Venice.

My dream route would be to do the trans Siberia rail between Mongolia and Russia but that would be quite expensive and takes a lot of planning. Hopefully Hive will moon so I can afford it. Otherwise, just either Moscow or St Petersburg would be great. Actually which would you recommend? I have done any research on Russia yet, but still hear about Russia being dangerous, which I'm sure you as a local will tell me is not true 🙂
