the Obelisk is a part of the large complex of the Belarusian Great Patriotic War Museum. At the bottom visitors can see an engraved text that describes the acquisition of the «Hero City» title by Minsk. Standing with fanfares raised high, the symbolic figure of the Motherland is part of the monument. Nowadays military parades and processions on the day of the key national holiday – Independence Day – take place near the Minsk Hero City Obelisk.
Those DMUs, class DP6, are in service sine 2012 - And I can confirm those are comfy ;-) The left one will leave later for Vitebsk and Polotsk, the right one will take me later to Gomel.
A blue hour overlooking several churches in the town of Vitebsk, in the northern part of Belarus. A lovely town that is very proud of the fact that painter Marc Chagall was born and raised there.
This is one from the archives, and since there won't be any traveling in the near future, I will take the opportunity to reprocess and post some images taken during earlier travels.
Stay safe everyone!
THIS AESTHETICAL BEAUTIFUL monument in Minsk commemorates the Soviet soldiers from Belarus who died in the long war with Afghanistan in the 1970s. At the base are several huge statues depicting weeping or stoical women, who express the pain and sadness of the mothers, sisters, and wives of their generation. It’s a very striking memorial, which benefits from its picturesque location on a small island in the river Svislach
