Marcel Proust said a good thing. "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes."

Yes. This is completely right. I love travel because it gives me new eyes.
So here's my story of Mockba (Moscow).

Moscow Underground

The reason why I decided to go to Russia is all because of the Moscow's underground station. I've heard that it's huge and deep down and beautiful. The photo above is the decoration of air duct. Each station has different treatment and very interesting to look around. If I had time, I would stay riding on the train and check out all the stations!



Moscow's subway system has lots of lines, maybe more than Tokyo. Walls are created by marbles and illuminated by chandeliers. Some station has stained glass and beautiful paintings. It's like you are in the museum or the palace. It might be showing off the power of Soviet Communism, but I really liked the point that Moscow people keep the remains of Communism. If this is in Tokyo, people will take it off everything that is finished.

Some told me that I should be really careful when I use underground railway. So I was bit nervous but surprisingly I found Moscow underground is much safer than Paris underground! I saw lots of people reading books and even sleeping like Tokyo ( ! ) and people speak to the people when the train approaches to the station, probably saying that she/he'll get off on the next station so that people will yield. I found that Moscow is really sophisticated city.



Red has the connotation of "beauty" in Russian. Red Squire means beautiful squire and indeed, it is beautiful.

I think Russian knows how to use colours. Matryoshka doll are colourful, churches are colourful, and cakes are colourful.

I thought Red Squire is more like insipid place but it has Gum department store and rather seemed like a fun place to go. And I thought Kremlin is more like political secret places, but it turned out it has lots of churches!!!

I remembered Moscow rule. Rule No.1: "Assume Nothing".
We should be open-mined to anything. If you think only in one point of view, your view will be narrowed. It's easy to say but hard to practice.

Keep the door open. That's what I learned again from Moscow.
