It is prestigious to have personal transport, but in big cities it is not always convenient to go by car due to the high density of traffic and jams. Public transport may bring you to your destination faster and with less effort, and subway is the fastest way to achieve this result.
In urbane culture subway plays a significant role, no wonder that sometimes it is viewed like an art object. Of course, the main purpose of subway is to transport passengers from one place to another, but as huge crowds pass the subway stops every day the architects thought that it would be a good idea to decorate underground. While walking along long subway halls you can admire the exhibition of art works or learn the history of the place as some subway stops are turned into the copy of museums. There are subways stops situated all around the world which look like real masterpieces. Here are only some of them.
