There were still no traffic jams, even the cars were piece, but the construction of the metro began around the world. It is not clear why, after all, building underground is much more expensive than building above the ground. What was the motive for building underground?
In Russia, the metro was opened with a delay from the rest of the world, at first it was opened in London, then the first metro lines began to appear in other cities of Europe, and in Russia they only abolished serfdom and only on May 15, 1935 the metro was opened in Moscow. It was built very quickly. The pace of construction led to the assumption that the metro was already built along ready-made tunnels.
There is no shortage of ancient tunnels either, they appeared from nowhere, but which exist under almost all cities not only in our country. Typically lined with chic brickwork.
The timing of construction was not very suitable, the country had just come out of the crisis, there was not enough materials. Although the architecture inside the first stations does not correspond to the hard times of that time. The first mine was located in the area of modern Rusakovskaya Street.
The choice of the construction site for the first branch was not justified in any way, there are no materials on this matter. And if they wanted to get into an already existing tunnel, then surely this place was marked with something. Therefore, you need to see what happened before in the places where the entrances to the metro are located today.

Let's start with the Lenin Library station, who was at this place knows that there used to be the Holy Cross Church, destroyed in 1934.
The Pyatnitskaya Church once stood at the entrance to the Okhotny Ryad metro station.
It was in the center of the city, there is little space, for example, maybe it was different on the outskirts?
Station Chistye Prudy, at the entrance to the station today there is a ventilation collector, earlier there was a church crossing. The entrance was made directly from the temple, then it was simply demolished.
There are two versions here, or there were a lot of churches in Moscow, and wherever you put your finger on the map, you will find yourself in a church everywhere.
Red Gate station, open when the first line opens.
This temple - the Church of the Three Saints, was located in Moscow in the area of the red gate. And again the temple has a similar fate, in its place there is an entrance to the metro.
And it turns out that wherever you stick, you find yourself in a temple, you can note a pattern - if there is a temple, then there is an entrance to the underground tunnel. Perhaps all the temples are connected by underground passages. These tunnels were most likely flooded with a soil stream, the result of some kind of cataclysm, which alternative historians talk about.
Metro station Kropotkinskaya, they built it where the Cathedral of Christ the Savior stood.
That is, there was a metro in Russia before the flood. We see the remains of these branches in the form of temples and chic underground tunnels. Apparently, it was in all cities, perhaps with the help of underground mines it was possible to get anywhere, the remains of the transport infrastructure of the past, still not completely restored.
I think another piece of the puzzle can be folded here - this is that these temples were the source of electricity. It is not for nothing that in all the photographs of the 19th century technology exhibitions there are small copies of churches and chapels inside.
And empty cities. Moscow 1867.
The metro was not only a passenger metro, it was likely that cargo was also transported underground.
The Moscow metro is generally an artifact under our feet, which contradicts the entire official history.
