Minsk City Tour

During the city tour you will see Independence Square, where grand monuments of Soviet architecture and monument to Lenin coexist with 19th century buildings and Red Cathedral – the draw card of the capital.

The coach will take you through Independence (Nezavisimosty) Avenue and its old and modern buildings, parks and monuments to the former Higher Market area. Restored and renovated churches, cathedrals, civilian buildings (the Town Hall among them) will help you delve in the country’s past and the professional guide will tell you everything from facts and statistics to myths and legends.

Pobediteley (Winners’) Avenue is an example of architectural future of the Belarusian capital; the Old City that is nearby will reveal its secrets to curious guests.

The Island of Tears is a must-see of any tour around the city – it is a deeply symbolic poignant monument complex to soldiers who died abroad.

- Victory Monument
- Alexander Nevsky Church
-  The Botanical Garden
- Kids’ Railway (operated by Railway School Pupils; a separate tour on the railway is possible)
- Cheluskintsev Park
