Rizhskaya (Moscow Metro)とは 意味・読み方・使い方

Rizhskaya (Russian: Рижская) is a Moscow Metro station in the Meshchansky District, North-Eastern Administrative Okrug, Moscow. It is on the Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya Line, between Prospekt Mira and Alexeyevskaya stations. It is named after the nearby Rizhskiy Rail Terminal (which serves trains to and from the Latvian capital, Riga) and was designed by Latvian architects A. Reinfelds and V. Apsītis. The brightly colored Latvian ceramics employed throughout the station make it instantly recognizable. The pylons, which follow the curve of the station tube, are faced with reddish-brown tile and sandwiched between piers faced with lemon yellow tile and decorated with gold-colored cornices. The ventilation grilles above the pylons are decorated with the Latvian coat of arms, probably the coat of arms of the Latvian SSR . The station opened on 1 May 1958.
