December 28, 2011, just before the New Year celebrations, a new metro station “Admiralteyskaya” was opened in Saint Petersburg. The station is located on the 5th purple line between the stations “Sadovaya” and “Sportivnaya”.

For about 15 years it was in fact ghost-station, the trains passed it without stopping. Active work was resumed several years ago – escalators and platform were assembled. Today, after the opening, “Admiralteyskaya ” has become the deepest metro station in Russia – the length of the escalators is 120 meters. Photos by skydrinker.

Entry and exit from the station are located at the intersection of Malaya Morskaya Street and Kirpichniy Lane, one minute walk from Nevsky Avenue and five minutes walk from Dvortsovaya Square. The station is the best way for tourists and residents of St. Petersburg to visit the central part of the city.
