In this post, we have collected some interesting metro map designs around the globe. These maps show the infrastructure of the city; each city is different from another because of the look, feel, regional culture, typography and many other things. These maps would be helpful for you in exploring these differences and would also come handy when you want to find out any place in the city. As designer, you can also learn a bit or two about wayfinding graphics when analyzing these designs. So, here’s the inspiring compilation of metro maps from around the world.

Err... Russia is in both Europe and Asia. Moscow, however, is in Europe. It's on the west side of the Ural mountains, so there's no doubt about that at all.

In Brazil you just put the Brasilia subway, which is the smallest of the country, should have shown the subway in Sao Paulo, Brazil's largest. Who sees the subway map of Brasilia think we don't have a good transport system and the subway in Sao Paulo is considered one of the best in the world.
See the link with map of São Paulo subway:
