It is convenient to get to Minsk from the European part of Russia by train: literally spent the night in a comfortable carriage, and you are already on the platform in the Belarusian capital. What can we say about the inhabitants of Siberia, for whom it is much more profitable to fly to the Republic of Belarus by plane. But traveling along extremely high-quality tracks is better by car. After all, this young country, and even a union republic even during the time of the USSR, surprisingly, but it was conscientiously distinguished by the built highways.
Landmarks of the country
In Belarus there are many beautiful cities and interesting sights, including the legendary Brest Hero Fortress, the incomparable Belovezhskaya Pushcha, medieval castles, among which we would like to especially mention Mirsky, located in the vicinity of the capital. There is a place in Belarus called Kossovo (not to be confused with Yugoslav, written with one "s"), where there is also a castle of excellent architecture. Those who like excellent provincial landscapes can stop by the village of Zhodishki, where the oldest water mill-museum is located. Moreover, they say that it is still in working order.
And in the capital itself - Minsk - there are also many attractions. The city suffered greatly from the war, so the buildings there are mainly of the post-war period, but there is so much engineering and architectural thought in them that you just have to walk along the city streets and sometimes even enjoy the frankly avant-garde style solutions of Belarusian architects. However, then the cities affected by the Nazi bombings were restored by the entire vast country. So Lithuanian, Latvian, Ukrainian and Russian specialists created a new image of the city. And not only those who came here from the republics bordering on Belarus.
