When in Moscow try to travel around by train. On my 1st trip there in 2014 all the announcements via the train intercom were in Russian. This last time it was accompanied in English.

Moscow metro is beautiful inside. Very crowded at times. In post-pandemic times still full of people. Free sanitiser machines (stands) on almost every entrance / exit. Announcements asks people to wear masks and gloves, but only a few do.
