[quote=Anonymous]Get a plastic smartest card - it will save you on the extra fee metro charges for using a paper card and it will probably be easier for you to use it by holding it up to the round sensor than lining up the paper fare card and feeding it through the gate mechanism. Try you best to avoid riding during rush hour. The fares are a little bit less if you wait to go through the gates between 9:30am and maybe 3:30pm. You'll sometimes see tourists waiting by the gates in the morning waiting for the clock to change to 9:30am before going through. No eating or drinking allowed in the train or stations. Don't be alarmed if you see metro police with dogs at the stations. Some of that is routine patrolling at some stations during certain times of the day or on certain days. [/quote]
