- The deepest insight into “Mayakovskaya” metro station of Moscow, Russia.
“Mayakovskaya” is one of the most beautiful stations in Moscow Metro, located on the Zamoskvoretskaya Line. It is built in 1938 by the project of an architect Alexey Dushkin. Renovated in 2010.
The station named for a famous Soviet poet, Vladimir Mayakovskiy.
The station was built as part of the second stage of the Moscow Metro expansion, opening on 11 September 1938. If the first stage was more focused on the building of the system itself, both architecturally and when it comes to the engineering, the stations appear modest in comparison to those that the second stage brought to the system. For the first time in the world, instead of having the traditional three-neath pylon station layout, the engineers were able to overlap the vault space and support it with two sets of colonnades on each side. This gave birth to a new Deep column station type design, and Mayakovskaya was the first station to show this.
Located 33 meters beneath the surface, the station became famous during World War II when an air raid shelter was located in the station. On the anniversary of the October Revolution, on 7 November 1941,Joseph Stalin addressed a mass assembly of party leaders and ordinary Muscovites in the central hall of the station. During World War II, Stalin took residence in this place.
Alexey Dushkin's Art Deco architecture was based on a Soviet future as envisioned by the poet Mayakovsky. The station features streamlined columns faced with stainless steel and pink rhodonite, white Ufaley and grey Diorite marble walls, a flooring pattern of white and pink marble, and 35 niches, one for each vault. Surrounded by filament lights there are a total of 34 ceiling mosaics by Alexander Deyneka with the theme "24-Hour Soviet Sky."
In 2005 a new second north exit was built, along with a new vestibule. Passengers leaving the station first descend on a short escalator ride into an underground vestibule, and then ascend the long way to the surface. The new exit also allows access to the 35th mosaic, which was previously hidden behind the service section. Other mosaic works were designed from scratch, accompanied by ample use of marble and stainless steel sculpturing. The bust of the poet Vladimir Mayakovsky was moved to the new surface vestibule, whose ceiling was also decorated with a mosaic composition from Mayakovsky's poem "Moscow Sky".

Ura! When I was 10 years old, I wrote a letter to the USSR embassy in Washington, D.C. requesting information on the Moscow Metro. Fifty-eight years later, Sergey delivers.
I always thought you were a good ambassador, Serg. Thanks!
LOL! Good one Shaggy!
+ shaggybreeks Московский метрополитен стратегически важный объект.
+shaggybreeks 50 years ago the Moscow Metro was also a potential vault in case of nuclear war, so it was really a strategic object.
they say it's a vault but I don't think a subway station would help anyone during a nuclear war..it's sorta like this duck and cover videos. I think it's just there to make people feel better.
wow,,very interesting! there was SOviet Ambasad in DC circa 1960??
Sergey, you mentioned that Mayakovskaya Metro Station is the most beautiful one in Moscow; however, I would venture to say that it is possibly the most beautiful metro station in the world! Certainly the architecture there is the most beautiful that I have ever seen in a subway station.
I love to view Russia through your eyes (the eyes of your camera), for you have the passion and exhilaration of one who sees everything for the first time and that makes it more interesting for all your viewers. It has been this youthful passion that you possess for your country that has kept me watching all your videos, since that very first one.
It's a pity politics and the media have clouded people's perceptions of this country.
that can be applied to everything really !
+Mr K *It's a pity politics and the media have clouded people's perceptions of this universe.
+Bruni - Me too, also my country
+Mr K
American newspapers in the 1950s and 60s reported that the Metro stank of human body odor. I was there last August and found that it's not true. Moscow is a very clean city.
+tepastrick2276 I been American metro Stations New York Coridors Smell Urines , and Inside subway stations Homeless peoplesleep in wagons coming terrible odor just 10 freet from tehy no one dare to get close to them
Thank you for showing us parts of your country. I have always wanted to visit Russia, with all of your history, arts and culture. One of the worlds greatest people.....I admire them greatly. Stephen, Ohio, U.S.A.
+BuckeyeBushcraft L. Now is the time for that :) The ruble against the dollar you enjoy. A guided tour will be cheaper than ever.
Sorry for my English.
+betany07 Yes, I agree, something to think about. Your English is fine. Thanks for your advice.
+BuckeyeBushcraft L. You wouldn't believe, Stephen, how much terrible anti-American propaganda Russia's government promotes on main TV channels here. Everyday they show us and speak of America being the source of all possible problems that modern Russia encounters. Believe me, lots and lots of Russians these day are so brainwashed. If you go out on a Moscow street or pretty much any street of a Russian city and ask people what they think of America or Americans, I bet at least 8 out of 10 will say mostly negative things about that. A lot of people will say that they do not trust Americans or even hate them, oddly enough considering the fact that most of them have never known any American personally. They keep soaking up all that crap form TV without even doubting.

I wasn't talking to you, little punk.
Your reporting skills and English skills have improved so much since Episode 1! You rock, Sergey!
You have a beautiful country, hope I can have the chance to visit it one day.. This metro station is simply a piece of art!
I'm actually soooo excited about this, so happy that you're going to be travelling !!! Woohooo starting with Moscow, i'm super happy, thank you so much for always contributing a lot of effort & time into making these wonderful videos for us !!!
Great video! Really happy that you made it out of Ufa again. That every 3 minute metro schedule is amazing, I live in the 5th largest city in the United States (Philadelphia, PA) and our metro runs only every 10-20 minutes, leading to people running down stairs or they'll miss the train.
+David Summers We also only have free wi-fi at the platforms of the metro stops, so when the train is in motion, there is no wi-fi or cellular reception.
+David Summers On the contrary, in Moscow metro wi-fi is only available on the trains. This is intended to avoid extra congestion at the stations.
its because Moscow's population is 8 times higher
so 20min /8 is roughly 2.5min :)
Brilliant Sergey, its nearly 3 months since our wonderful week in Moscow, I will enjoy all your reports and look forward to my next visit. Please people don't listen to the bullshit that our not so glorious leaders are spreading about Russia. Travel there yourself its a great experience. Cheers Sergey keep up the good work.
Bill and Irene
+Пётр Толстой неужели это Вы, ведущий программы "Время"? :)
I agree. I'm so tired of governments trying to make people hate each other. It's always governments causing these problems, with propaganda, for their own elitist agenda. Don't believe it - most all people in the world just want to live their lives, raise their families, and have a decent life. Russia and the US should be allies. Love to the Russian people from the USA!
НАТО - это коррупция США чиновников основанная на страхе народа.
Wow : awesome to see all the sites and how real life is in Russia . Came across your channel the other day . Sure enjoying your videos ! Kudos from USA 🇺🇸
Every 3 min? WiFi? I looking forward to this for my country's subway. I think your country's tourism promotion ministry should reward you with something. Your video certainly make many viewers want to come visit Russia
+dave Hui The intervals between trains depend on the time of the day: from 1.5 min during rush hours to 5+ min late at night.
+Serge N it's still OK.
Yap still faster than in my country
+dave koh in a rush hour on the busiest stations its even less than 1 minute
+fromnsk In Hong Kong, passengers would go crazy if the trains are not arriving in less than 2 minutes.
Zamoskvorestskaya is too hard to say, Sergey, but Mayakovskaya is really a beautiful piece of art and luxury from the old republic. Glad to see this episode, thank you :)
Fascinating! My favorite part is when you stepped on to the subway, I felt as if I was with you. The subway is clean and beautiful, you should be very proud. People on the subway acted like city people, they didn't say anything. In my small town in the USA, people all talk to one another and most are very friendly. thank you Sergey
I'm glad, I was there a week ago. Russia is a beautiful country, I really wanna spend more time.
u in CHina?
I haven't been to Moscow for a year. Facial expression of Moscovites haven't changed since.))) Now I even miss them. I used to have the same stern expression. Even sterner.
Absolutely beautiful Sergey. The architecture for the stations as well as Moscow itself was amazing. Loved this episode. I also loved you showing us the ambiance on the train. Can't wait to see the rest.
Welcome Igor and great camerawork
that metro looks so cool, very beautiful. I live in a small town with no transportation or whatever, must be so fun to live in a big city like that, you can get anywhere by train. I suppose both have there pros and cons lol.
Greetings from Greece guys!We love you!Orthodox brothers!
Ωραίος
Moscows Metro is great. It's a built well and beautifully. Moscow's city workers do an absolutely great job keeping the roads clear on Moscow
Interesting to note not one commercial advertisement within the stations, trains or escalators.
Our London underground is plastered with adverts.
There are ads in trains for sure. Also commercials can be found on the peripheral stations.
+Arnold Layne
Some of the America fast food places have add a bit of Russian food to their menu. At McDonald's you can actually get blinis.
+Pusha there are no advertisemnts inside any stations! may be only on TV-screens)
Metro stations are cleaned hard every night.
+Gazza Cam
While there are no ads on the Metro platforms, some escalators have ads along the walls. That's how I decided to try a Russian cafeteria style restaurant called Moo-Moo(English pronunciation). This was Aug. 2015.
+Gazza Cam west is all about chizeling Peoples mind with their slogans , not just advertisement
So interesting Sergei! Similar to our TTC in Toronto, but with wifi and more stops. Your coverage is outstanding!Anthony
Thanks! This made me so homesick for Moscow, especially the Metro. Loved hearing the sounds again!
great video. amazing metro stations. great urban culture.
Dear Sergei. I just cant thank you enough for all your real friendly & professional demonstrations....as if I am already there!
Keep up your excellent work. I wish to see you soon personally!
Your friend SAM, in Canada.
Man this is addictive!! Very smart of you not to talk in metro, it almost feels as if I am there. Hands behind the camera are real good. Keep it up bro.
Great Video. The Moscow metro is amazing. You can spend a good day just visiting the different stations. I like Mayakovskaya station but there are so many.
Да! Москва! I have been looking forward to these videos for soooooo long!
I can't wait to see the rest! Good luck on your travels Sergey, and thanks again for these videos. You're an inspiration to us all!
I wish I was there! I was using the metro in Warsaw last year, and none of the stations was as pretty as those in Moscow. A big wow :O
+siedemnastego You still have an another sister of Stalin's skyscrapers, u must rid of it and demolish it for the greater good.
Pretty quiet and classic looking train atmosphere.
Sergey, I LOVE your videos, please keep it up:) Everyday I see that you upload a video, its a good day. Cheers from Texas! :D
I'm already happy when I hear the intro music. haha

Probably the most beautiful metro station on the planet!
Looks like a palace entrance!
Cecil Winsley - Yes, that's correct , Moskow Metro's it is the BEST in the world with out any doubt. Check another stations too. But how many stations Metro have ? I forgot ?
Brilliant video! It took me straight back to Moscow, haven't visited for about 5 years, I just love the Moscow Metro. This video really pulled at the heart strings!
Kerrie Girdo Amazing!
So beautiful and clean!
Thank you I love your videos. From an American.
Very nice, the New York subway is like riding in a prison cell.
So true
+The Universal Eye Washington isn't much different than New York. I've ridden on Washingtons but not New York. I hope I never return to New York
+The Universal Eye Curtis Sliwa,of Guardian Angels fame, calls the number three train "the slasher express". The last time I rode that subway they were still using tokens. It's dirty,noisy,and decrepit but I kind of miss it.
+Félix Maltchinski how does it work? You name your destination before entrance and pay the price you are told? Is there any ticket inspection inside the trains?
Félix Maltchinski I've always thought that nowhere, but you've said that in Washington D.C. the price depends on your destination, so I've asked how this is implemented.
Sergey, I thought this was one of your most interesting video's I have watched so far. The people of Moscow should be proud of the way you and your camera man have shown the beautiful city and subway to the whole world. The artistry, marble and chandeliers are incredible. Congratulations, I elect you the new Moscow Ambassador of Tourism
Just spent a month in russia ! And i love it! im gonna migrate in June! Hope to meet you man! Much love from Australia!
@@anamericaninrussia01 I don't see why any Westerner with a decent paying job would move there to live. Career opportunity wise Russia looks fairly dim, unless you manage to land a white-collar job in Moscow or maybe you intend to work in a career relating to oil.
Plus, not being able to speak the Russian language itself is a big shot in the foot being that most in the country don't have a very good command of the English language. Further, many tend to be quite nationalistic so speaking the language with an accent might be an obstacle, but of course if you're a tourist it's totally fine if you do, but now say if you were competing for the same jobs as the locals then that's where the problem arises.
If I were you i'd hang tight in whatever Western country and travel to Russia on holidays since it should be relatively cheap to be there considering the exchange rates.
Awesome. When visiting, we would ride the metro just for the sake of riding the metro. St. P and Moscow.
Really amazing to see, it makes me want to go there for a visit, many thanks!!
You're welcome!
Always welcome to Russia!
I'm so excited that you would be travelling all over Russia! All the very best! Can't wait for the future vlogs! BTW, this is the best cameraman you ever had!
Wow Sergey I really felt like I was there with you! Great video very informative
Hi Sergey!! Wish you get well soon and upload more interesting videos.. By seeing your videos and my respect/obliged to your nation I planned a week trip to Russia. I have seen St. Petersburg and Moscow. Interestingly on 3rd day in Moscow, I even don't look my app/map...can understand Russian where I get down...I enjoyed a lot Moscow Metro...God bless and protect this beautiful land...Lots of love from India :-) ..Thanks to you to make this trip possible!!
It is large and most beautiful metro station I have seen.Unlike Paris or London or in the U.S.,I was struck by the fact that there was no graffiti on or in the trains...so very clean. Thanks for taking this journey,Sergey...and also for the added information in the description of the video!
superb...... my list tourism..moscow from singaporean....
Very beautiful
the architecture fascinates me
I'm surprised how taciturn the passengers are
by the way ... it is the same trains
as in Budapest (Hungary)
Thanks bro Sergey for this 20 minute impressions
and thanks Igor for the good job.
Greetings from Germany
Ettore
Amazing Architecture! I really enjoyed the silence in the train, very nice Sergey! So proud of this channel :D
I have been on moscow metro. They have old ladies watching cctv in boxes under nearly every escalator.
XD
+СерЁга СкитЪ в то время как во всем мире в городах с метро если и есть такой человек, то только один на всю систему.
+СерЁга СкитЪ в принципе не хочется хулиганить, когда за тобой следят. не обязательно бабушки, хотя это, конечно, самое страшное
+СерЁга СкитЪ помню однажды веселились и бегала вверх по эскалатору, идущему вниз. больше никогда в жизни не буду XD.....
Sergey, your videos on your channels, Real Russia, are always amazing... I watched this one, almost with tears in my eyes, because I've already been there, recognizing the metro stations, Tetralnia, the Bolsjoy and all of it.... Red square is also so unbelievable, and for every one.. visiting Mocsow and Red Square, make sure you go there both during day time and at night... so different, and breathtaking all the time...
Serguey, I love your country! Such a beautiful culture!
Sergay*
What a beautiful metro station😁very clean and not crowded
I see people were hiding their faces on the escalator but if I was there, I'd wave to the camera and you!😉
I like how efficient the snow removal outside is too!
Thanks for your video 😊
Truly amazing these old Moscow metro stations, considering many of them have already been built before WWII. The only drawback is the noise, because they didn't use noise-absorbing materials in those days.
"Осторожно, двери закрываются!" :)
+iniputu noise level is tolerable, it's much less than at a rock concert, for example.
Great video! Brings me back memories of riding the metro in the Saint Petersburg :)
+Daniel Goutovets In Saint Petersburg the stations are dug much deeper due to rivers and, overall, complicated swampy landscape.
That is true, the stations are dug much deeper in St. Petersburg.
Great video Sergey! Love the information on the Metro! Greetings from the USA my friend. Paul
I teared up watching this. I am so grateful for this history lesson / exhibit of beauty. The amount of detail and sophistication in the marble stubs and commons. What a beautiful place my country is. Such a shame I moved to America at age 5. One day I will return! One day!
I heard that Belorussian, Kiev and Partisan stations are also beautiful, especially the partisan station which had great sculptures, of course, Mayakovsky, named after the great Russian poet, is definitely great too.By the way wondering how many people read the novel Metro 2033 or played Metro 2033, haha!!
well done Sergey and Igor!!!
cannot wait to see the next episode!
nice video as always..great job
Thank you. I was born in Moscow but the last time I was there was in 1988 and I was only 8 years old. Thank you for letting me see the city I was born in.
One of my favorite channel.The information's useful when i traveled to Russia
I have been there, and it's wonderful place. Thank you Sergey.
Moscow Metro is quite beautiful. I wish the NYC Subway could look like it. If i were to ever visit Moscow, the first thing I will do is take pictures and videos of the Metro
I find your video very interesting and informative, Thank you for making these to show us what your country is really like. Thank you.
Brilliant video. You make Russia very attractive. I am finding that I wish England was in Russia. {|:^)
Thank you for showing mayakovskaya station, i am pretty sure there are other beautiful stations . show us if you can, thank you servey baklikov.
what beautiful towns and buildings...thank you for sharing
watching Real Russia i learned english!kiss from Italy!
Excellent content. Beautiful system!
always good, always educational and informative...keep up this good work..you should be given the title of Tourist Minister.
Can't wait for the next video. Great job!! Excellent quality!
Awesome job showing the real Moscow! I love that I got to travel in the Metro and see the Bolshoi Theatre all the way from Montreal, Quebec CANADA!!!
Great video looking forward to more Moscow vids
Cheap public transport, a dream i've always had for america
thank you for making me enjoying some parts of Moscow through your video... very interesting. I want to visit this country someday..
Thanks my friend for great job your country is beautiful !! can't wait for more videos !! God Bless You
I like this metro. I have only rode one metro and that's in NYC.eh nothing like this. This is nice.
Great job capturing the vibe of being on that train. I could feel the awkwardness right through the video.
Looking forward to more! Great job!
It is a very beautiful platform in that metro station. I would be looking at it all and not getting on the train until I seen everything. Magnificent.
If you attach a coin to the column and toss it up, the coin will fly across the metal arch above the platform and descend along the column on the other side of the platform. Such a trick ;-)
that was like next best thing to being there . thanks for taking me along ;-)
The American equivalent of Ivanov is Johnson which also quite common. The art work of the Mayakovskaya station is the excellent Russian painter Alexander Deineka who should be in my opinion better known in the United States. I think Americans might be interested in the Mendeleyev station's decoration, especially the light fixtures as they're inspired by its namesake's Periodic Table. Enjoy Moscow as there's a lot to see and do.
That was SO FUN! I'm SO watching your travels.The Metro was beautiful! Was hoping you would go into the theatre. Fun Fun Fun
Hello SERGEY. Beautiful video. Thanks!!! Have a good day. Bye. Rudi from EUROPA.
rally beautiful and amazing art metro in the world . congratulations
Cool start Sergey!
I think all huge capitals of the world are somehow the same and not really representative for the average whole country or even the poorer parts..
But you pointed out why moscow is the right point to start your tours.
Id like to see some smaller towns in siberia for example :)
Or maybe even a factory / industry site?
That would be great...
Sergey - this one of your best videos - beautiful metro station - Seemingly your are enjoying the trip while Igor has to stand up - Sergey this is an outstanding glimpse og Moscow!!
You have an infectious smile my friend. I am happy you are doing so well with your channel.
you forgot to tell people about the phone app called Yandex its all in English and will help tourists out :) its a must for anyone traveling in Moscow :)
u in MOscow?
Very good information Sergey. I can't wait to see more from Moscow
VERY GOOD VIDEO ABOUT DEEPEST INSIDE IN MOSCOW.
THANKS SERGEY!!!! UPLOAD MANY MORE VIDEOS!
I have always liked to travel, but I can't afford it. Thanks to the internet, and sites like You Tube, Google Earth, and people that are able to bring us their experiences through photos and videos, I am able to at least do the next best thing... and watch all these interesting places on my computer. Thank you, Sergei, for bringing us these great tours of Russia.
Nice video! A unique athmosphere in that metro.
That was great, I felt like I was there on the subway with you and walking around Moscow. Thank you.
I have been there... very impressive stations in Moscow metro. How were you able to film there with such low amount of people? all the times I was there with at all hours it seemed like Armageddon with people running around everywhere.
It looks like it was Sunday morning.
Or maybe Saturday morning, because in Russia weekdays/weekends schedule is usually 5/2.
Omg so happy to get a 20 min video from you guys ^_^ I hope you can show some Russian ballet I've always heard it to be the best.
Thank you for sharing - always enjoy the videos!
You should pick out 60 minutes of total footage or so, covering a number of common and interesting places, and make a documentary. Then submit it to the History channel or something. Seeing inside stores and old soviet apartments is really interesting. My friends think Russians live in dirt floored huts, wear grey and brown rags, and farm turnips or something. I think people would like to see you guys are just like everyone else.
Tell to your friends about this channel so they can know what is Real Russia is. Sorry for my English I'm Russian.
there is no west media that will ever show the real Russia. its against rules... sorry but it's truth
+massc Gee not true, youtube is western media!
+Bob Bear and youtube bans some blogs without any reason
maaac again not true, youtube will ban any video/comments that are threatening, or calling for violence! Sounds good to me!
From what I've seen, this blog on Russia hasn't had any troubles, and is free to promote, and educate people on the many beautiful things about Russia!
I was just there visiting your beautiful city. Mayakovskaya station was amazing. We had a wonderful time!
Thank you for the wonderful video. Love your channel. Spasibo
Sergei I really enjoy all your videos. I took 4 years of Russian in college but I don't have anyone to speak it with. oh well. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
Very nice! I wish the stations in DC were this beautiful.
