John Benjamin rounded up stunning images of the most beautiful subway stations from all around the world.
A recent piece by John Benjamin on the Urbanful blog displays eye-popping photographs from 16 of the most beautiful metro stations around the world. Ranging from the colorfully lit and psychedelic Bund Sightseeing Tunnel in Shanghai, which travels under the Huangpu River and connects Pudong to the Bund, to the ornate and palace-like décor of Kievskaya, Mayakovskaya, and Park Pobedy Stations in Moscow, Russia, the list showcases the range of beauty found in these underground transit stations.
Other highlights include the painted raw rock preserved as walls, columns, and roofing in some of Stockholm, Sweden's stations, and the beautiful, colorful modern designs in the University of Naples Subway Station in Naples, Italy.
