==Stations== {{Main|List of Moscow Metro stations}} Of the metro's 250 stations, 88 are deep underground, 123 are shallow, 12 are surface-level and 5 are elevated. {{Update section|date=January 2018}} The deep stations comprise 55 [[Pylon station|triple-vaulted pylon]] stations, 19 [[Deep column station|triple-vaulted column]] stations, and one [[single-vault station]]. The shallow stations comprise 79 [[Shallow column station|spanned column]] stations (a large portion of them following the "centipede" design), 33 [[Shallow single-vault station|single-vaulted stations]] (Kharkov technology), and four single-spanned stations. In addition, there are 12 ground-level stations, four elevated stations, and one station ([[Vorobyovy Gory (Moscow Metro)|Vorobyovy Gory]]) on a bridge. Two stations have three tracks, and one has double halls. Seven of the stations have side platforms (only one of which is subterranean). In addition, there were two temporary stations within rail yards. The stations being constructed under [[Stalinism|Stalin's regime]], in the style of [[socialist classicism]], were meant as underground "palaces of the people". Stations such as [[Komsomolskaya (Koltsevaya line)|Komsomolskaya]], [[Kiyevskaya (Koltsevaya line)|Kiyevskaya]] or [[Mayakovskaya]] and others built after 1935 in the second phase of the evolution of the network are tourist landmarks: their photogenic architecture, large chandeliers and detailed decoration are unusual for an urban transport system of the twentieth century. The stations opened in the 21st century are influenced by an international and more neutral style with improved technical quality.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.railway-technology.com/features/moscow-metro-stations/ |title=The people's palace: exploring Moscow Metro's evolving designs |date=10 December 2018 |website=railway-technology.com |access-date=19 November 2021}}</ref> {{wide image|Панорама станции метро КСЛ Мичуринский проспект.jpg|700px|align-cap=center|[[Michurinsky Prospekt]] is the first semi-underground station in the Moscow Metro}}<gallery mode="packed" heights="110"> File:Ploshchad revolyutsii Metro 2010.jpg|[[Ploshchad Revolyutsii (Moscow Metro)|Ploshchad Revolyutsii]] (1938) File:Metro MSK Line3 Baumanskaya.jpg|[[Baumanskaya (Moscow Metro)|Baumanskaya]] (1944) File:Metro MSK Line5 Novoslobodskaya.jpg|[[Novoslobodskaya]] (1952) File:MoscowMetro_Frunzenskaya_HA1.jpg|[[Frunzenskaya (Moscow Metro)|Frunzenskaya (1957)]] File:Len_Prosp_Antares_02.jpg|[[Leninsky Prospekt (Moscow Metro)|Leninsky Prospekt]] (1962) File:Kakhovskaya_-_station_hall_(2).jpg|[[Kakhovskaya (Moscow Metro)|Kakhovskaya]] (1969) (after 2021 reconstruction) File:Tretyakovskaya1-mm.jpg|[[Tretyakovskaya (Moscow Metro)|Tretyakovskaya]] (early station, 1971) File:Shabol_Antares_07.jpg|[[Shabolovskaya (Moscow Metro)|Shabolovskaya]] (1980) File:Tretyakovskaya_North_2010.jpg|[[Tretyakovskaya (Moscow Metro)|Tretyakovskaya]] (additional adjacent station, 1986) File:Konkovo_02.jpg|[[Konkovo (Moscow Metro)|Konkovo]] (1987) File:Tstan_02.jpg|[[Tyoply Stan (Moscow Metro)|Tyoply Stan]] (1987) File:Rimskaya-mm.jpg|[[Rimskaya]] (1995) File:Parkpobedy-mm01.jpg|[[Park Pobedy (Moscow Metro)|Park Pobedy]] (2003) File:Slavyanskiy_bulvar_station.JPG|[[Slavyansky Bulvar]] (2008) File:Novokosino_metro_4.jpg|[[Novokosino (Moscow Metro)|Novokosino]] (2012) File:Moscow_Kosino_metro_station_asv2019-06.jpg|[[Kosino (Moscow Metro)|Kosino]] (2019)<!-- not Novokosino at all !--> </gallery>
