@themegandaily: Here’s a NYC secret I bet you didn’t know… The NYC subway system was inspired by…the subway in BUDAPEST! That’s right! New York City does not have the world’s oldest subway. Budapest has the oldest electric subway in continental Europe! And many features of the Budapest subway inspired the New York City subway. On a recent trip to Budapest, Budapest tour guide @🇭🇺Betti Tour Guide Budapest shared history of the Budapest subway. Betti is also one of the best (if not THE best) tour guides in Budapest. If your hoping take a tour of Budapest, Betti if your guide! Did you know this about the New York subway and the Budapest subway? Wanna know more, book a tour with @ bettitoursbudapest .

Those station entrances at Astor are beautiful! But they are replicas from 1986 though.

This is really cool, I imagine this is how the original IRT stations looked when they opened in 1904. I think Wall Street on the 4 line has preserved a lot of the old aesthetic.

Thanks for sharing that information. Most New Yorkers were not aware of the similarities.
