A friendly Moscow webcam is the best I can offer my intrepid friends. That and a return to the saga that was our trip there some years ago.
You can control this webcam directly on the webpage – if you select the preset position called Downtown you can see some on the onion domes and massive architecture in downtime Moscow. You can also click anywhere on the visible picture and it will be centered on that location for you.
Note that anyone with an Internet connection can control this, so don’t be surprised if it suddenly moves somewhere you didn’t ask it to. Pretty darned cool though – brings up good memories of our days in Moscow.
