What is the biggest underground passage in St. Petersburg?

Perhaps part of the people aware of it, but it is not everything. So mind you do not kick, regarded as informative page.

(13 photos plus a little bit of information)





Metro Vyborg. To the right on the photo entrance to the subway, just left of the entrance to the passage.
Generally Vyborg already six outputs. Currently only works five or six surrounded by forests. HZ why.



That is the entrance that fote Previous



As soon as we go, we turn left and see the underground entrance to the metro station. At what is noteworthy that there is no escape underground.

Note 1. Recently the rain, so a little wet.
note 2. All the blue panel sides meet this existing stalls (in this picture and on), the output simply removed, and the transition plodder mainly walk, so that not all the work output.



Turning 180 degrees and pass 50 meters.



This is the most incomprehensible door. Some say that it is an underground bunker, others that a bomb shelter ... Work at least it says that there lives a Trespassers W.
I believe it.



Even at 90 degrees to the left and go through the next series of stalls. On weekdays, it is very crowded and hurrying to her aunt "Lomo" home, this is where all purchased fare.
(sometimes I fotik podglyuchivaet (old). We try not to notice)

And finally, we see the beginning of the tunnel. Two of them, but from which it has recently opened only one of them.

1. Transition from the station "Vyborg" - the longest in the city, but at the same time and the transition with the lowest number of passengers.
2. Designed for posts Vyborg and Kalinin regions, but it is not any service tunnel.
3. Before the north (opposite the house number 32 on Forest Avenue) there was elevated walkway over the tracks. It was built in the 1940s. It was dismantled immediately after the opening of the tunnel.

About Vyborg tunnel rumors and legends:
* Some believe that the transition was built in case of war, to use it as a bomb shelter, but it is especially confusing to the enemy lost in all of its corridors.
* Some believe that the transition is a service of underground tunnels used by employees of the subway, and just opened for passengers to make it easier to report passenger traffic between Vyborg and Kalinin district (the view network service tunnels arose in connection with the intricacies of the transition).
* Some believe that the move is necessary for the secret messages between subway and railway.

The total length of the transition of more than 250 meters. The length of the tunnels and more than 150.
