Travel | The Beautiful Moscow Metro Museum of Art
© 2014 Wazari Wazir | Beautiful Moscow Metro Stations | All Photographs Taken With Fujifilm X100T The Moscow Metro dates back to 1931, when its construction began, although engineers Pyotr Balinsky and Evgeny Knorre submitted their first designs to the Moscow City Duma as far back as 1902.

Kembara Bersama Trans-Siberian Railway | Berapa Lama Masa Yang DiPerlukan?
Salah satu soalan yang biasa saya terima sekembalinya melakukan trip Trans-Siberian Railway ialah berapa lama masa yang diperlukan untuk trip ini?
