Minsk, the capital of Belarus, has an exciting history. It has stood for over 900 years, however most of Minsk has been built after World War II. The center of the city is where most of the action and attraction is. The main roads, Nezalezhnasci and Vyzvalicieliau are the cleanest and busiest in Minsk. The city is also much safer than one would imagine. Many people hear bad things about Minsk, and Belarus in general, but the streets are quite safe. This is probably due to the huge amount of police that can be found throughout the city. Don’t be afraid to get out and meet the friendly people.
