In March of 2003 I jumped on a plane to Russia. Let me back up a bit. It's not just that easy, at least it wasn't. First you have to do the paperwork, then some more paperwork and get a invitation. No ploblem if you just have some money to pay an agency. Along with the paperwork you have to mail your passport to get the visa stamp. I was uncomfortable about mailing my passport, but I did it anyway.

While I was there I went to Lenin's Tomb, Red Square, Saint Basil's Cathedral, a monument to the Soviet unknown soilders, a monument to the first man in space, an indoor waterpark, the subway and lots more monuments.

The subway is a work of art in itself. Everything I saw was a lot bigger than what I remember on TV. The city itself is huge so don't even thing of not taking some sort of metro. Take lots of pictures and try some blini, Russian pancakes.
Looking on Red Square.
Lenin's Tomb

Oh I agree with you the metro is a masterpice of art. Does not remember the paper work, send my passport to the embassy, got it back with the visa, and thar was that. I`m from Norway, may bee that is the reason.
