Victory Park Station Interior
The metro station Victory Park was constructed with two separate and parallel platforms, although only the inner set of tracks is in use at the present time. The architects of Victory Park station, Nataliya Shurygina and Nikolay Shumakov, made a return to the style of Russian classicism when they designed this metro station. Upon seeing the Victory Park station, you will immediately be impressed by the two halls (platforms) with identical design but opposite color schemes. In the photo you can see symmetrical columns of highly polished red and pale gray marble. The style of the station is reminiscent of the first stations of the Moscow metro. In the background of the photo there is a sign with the name of this station in Russian, "Park Pobedy" (Victory Park).

Arthur was great! He is reliable and punctual (to the minute).
His knowledge of the city and its history is very impressive. His English is excellent and he has a great sense of humor. I enjoyed my time in Moscow and hope to return in the future. My first call will be to Arthur.
Spaceebo!
