Mezhdunarodnaya metro station, Metro station in Frunzensky District, Saint Petersburg, Russia
Mezhdunarodnaya station sits roughly 65 meters underground and features a column-wall design with an island platform serving two parallel tracks. The station functions as a major transit point for the metro system in this district.
Plans for this station began in 1986, but the project faced multiple delays before finally opening on December 28, 2012. It started operations alongside the neighboring Bukharestskaya station.
The name means 'International' and reflects the surrounding area where many streets are named after Eastern European cities and political figures. You notice this naming pattern as you move through the neighborhood.
The entrance connects to the Mezhdunarodny shopping mall and provides access to several bus and trolleybus lines for further travel. Visitors can easily reach the station via other transit options as well.
The station was the southeastern terminus of the Frunzensko-Primorskaya Line until October 2019, when the route extended further south. Today it operates as an intermediate stop rather than a line endpoint.
