How Metro is unfriendly to english speakers
I live in Moscow almost all my life and for me Metro is the main transport that I use for commuting. It`s fast and cheap while it allows you to reach almost everything you need across Moscow. But it`s really low-adopted for tourists. Only few years ago Moscow Metro got a map where you could find name of the stations in English and only some trains have voice announcements in English (the next station is ...). But if you are on a station and you want to understand which way you should take (left platform or right) it`s absolutely impossible to guess because we don`t translate the names of the stations which on the navigate "line" on the tunnel wall and also, we don`t even translate the name of the exact station! So, you can`t even understand where you are :) |
