The Paris metro (french Métro de Paris) is one of the oldest in the world. In Western Europe, the oldest is the London Underground. The first lines of the Paris subway were laid strictly under the carriageway of streets. The deviation from the axis of the streets threatened to hit the cellars of houses. Some stations have a curved platform due to insufficient width of streets. For the same reason, the side platforms at some stations are not exactly opposite to each other.
The Paris metro was opened on July 19, 1900, to the World Exhibition. The ticket on the first branch of the "Vincennes Castle - Port-Mayo" cost 15 centimes old francs for the second class and 25 centimes for the first. Most of the lines in the center were built by the 1920s.
The peculiarities of the Paris metro are the small spaces between the stations, the high density of the subway network in the city center and the design of the first stations in the Art Nouveau style by designer Ector Guimard.
Metro in Paris - the most reliable form of public transport, as street traffic does not concern it. A dense network of metro stations covers the entire territory of Paris, and some lines extend to remote suburbs.
The Metropolitan has 14 numbered "big" lines, plus 2 short (3 bis and 7 bis) - the former branches of the 3rd and 7th lines. The length of the tracks is about 220 km, 383 stations (including interchange stations). Almost all lines are underground, above-ground stations are only 21 (of which most are on line 6).
The Paris metro occupies the second place in terms of congestion (about 4.5 million passengers a day) among the subways of Europe after the Moscow metro and the 10th place in the world.
