Petrovsky Park (Russian: Петровский парк) is a station on the Bolshaya Koltsevaya and Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya lines of the Moscow Metro. It is temporarily the eastern terminus of the line until Nizhnyaya Maslovka is completed. It opened on 26 February 2018 as one of five initial stations on the new line.[4] Petrovsky Park allows transfers to Dinamo Station on the Zamoskvoretskaya line.

Location

It is in the Aeroport District of Moscow near Petrovsky Park and Petrovsky Palace in northern Moscow. It is adjacent to VTB Arena, which will be the home stadium of FC Dynamo Moscow and one of the venues of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. The station is named for Petrovsky Park.

Design and Layout

There are entrances on both sides of Leningradsky Prospekt.[5] The interior of the station includes images of the 18th century palace as well as silouettes of trees to invoke images of the park. The flared columns are made of marble, while the floors consists of granit tiles.[6]
