It is obvious that people abroad
know almost nothing about Belarus.
It is quite surprising to hear Europeans saying that Belarus is small and far. But by
far the most shocking is the label of a sad and grey country hanging on it. Famous
Belarusian hospitality and warm-heartedness are not mentioned. Nevertheless
many foreigners indicate the desire to get to know the country, its history, originality.
Most of them express a will to find out about the Belarusian culture, from the
language to the food and the history. Particularly interesting is the origin of
the country name “Belarus”
and the difference of the nation compared to Russia.
What can you advise foreigners to visit in Belarus?

ОтветитьУдалитьThere are a lot of places in Belarus, which show traditions, customs, history and cultural uniqueness of our country. For example, Polotsk is the oldest city of Belarus. Besides it is considered to be the geographic center of Europe. There is a large number of cathedrals and churches, and also historical monuments in this city. One of the most known sights of Polotsk is a St. Sophia Cathedral. it is one of the earliest temples of Ancient Russia and the most ancient stone construction in the territory of modern Belarus. Polotsk is also associated with a name of Efrosiniya Polotskaya with who’s name the foundation of the Polotsk Spaso-Evfrosiniyevsky monastery is connected.
ОтветитьУдалитьMoreover there are many natural places, parks such as Belovezhskaya Pushcha National Park, Braslaw Lakes and others.
And of course each tourist should visit the capital of Belarus, Minsk, because it is the center of modern life in our country.
In addition I should say that in my opinion it is better to visit country on special holydays like Maslenitsa, Kupala Night or some national holidays.
If I were a foreigner, I would prefer to visit Belarus rather than Russia. Our country is neither big nor small. I have got friends in Germany who have had a desire to visit Belarus. So, I was to plan their time-table and a list of worth-visiting places. I advised them to attend Mir Castle and Nesvizh. Moreover, Belarus is famous for Dudutki (and I want everybody to visit it). Another sight is the Naroch and Braslav Lakes (as we know, Belarus is called blue-eyed country because of a great number of lakes and rivers). The capital - Minsk - is also full of attractive places. Of course, the national Library is our pride. But first of all, everyone should visit "upper town", the Troetskoe suburb and the Opera and Ballet House. Moreover, I think it is interesting to visit Polotsk because this city is a great valueble place with lots of museums and other sights. So, welcome to Belarus!
ОтветитьУдалитьOur country is full of nature sights. Mesmerising Braslav Lakes,Boginsk Lake, Snyd Lake, Slobodkovskaya ridge where you can have rest and test new emotions. Moreover our country is rich from religious sight too. There are a lot of Catholic and Orthodox churches and cemetery. There are many famous were born and work there. So, foreigners can visit our country for spiritual interest, for architectural and nature interest and for meeting other people. Every county has its own zest and i dont think that the foreigners will be disappointed after their visit
ОтветитьУдалитьIf I had a chanсe to tell foreigners about Belarus and Its famous sights i would like to advise them to visit Brest. I had the opportunity to visit this city and I'm sure that It will be hard to find more beautiful place. I was there almost four months ago but I still remember that special atmosphere of serenity. I used to think that Minsk is the best and the most gorgeous city in our country. But my attitude to It was completely changed when I saw the main street in Brest. I would like to draw attention to the fact that this street is pedestrian and the architectural composition of buildings there is amasing. Now I think that Brest can compete with Minsk. So I advise foreigners to visit this magic city. I will not tell them about historical monuments because everyone can find the information on the Internet. But i think that personal impression is better.
ОтветитьУдалитьIn my opinion, our motherland, our country Belarus is very beautiful and amazing. are gorgeous and so native. There are a lot of interesting and dignified places, which I can advice to visit. All our regional cities are full of sights. But I would like to advice my favorite place in Belarus! It is Braslav Lakes. You can ask me why it is my favorite. And I will answer immediately! This place is filled of peace and tranquility. You can relax there. You feel freedom when you look at endless lakes! It is fantastic. In this wonderful place you can really experience the flavor of Belarus. There are a lot of villages near. And tourists can meet with old native speakers. They can tell interesting stories about Belarusian history and a lot of legends. Welcome to Belarus!
