Park at Paveletsky station in Moscow is a task that requires preparation: the official parking lot of the station is designed for only 120 spaces, and demand exceeds supply by 3-5 times on weekdays.

The fastest way to find a place is to book it in advance through services Parking.ru or Yandex.Parking, but even this does not guarantee free space during rush hour.
