Background
Burnakovskaya opened on 20 December 1993. Until September 2002 with the opening of Burevestnik, it was the western terminus of the Sormovskaya line.[1][2] Its name comes from the crossing of Burnakovsky and Kuibysheva Street with Sormovskiy Highway.
It has octagonal columns lined with white marble, and walls painted red, the bottom being lined with curved red roof tiles. The floor is paved with dark granite, crossed with strips of white marble.[3]
