Welcome to Belarus!

in #tourist8 years ago

Belarus is my homeland. It is the place where I was born. Officially it is called the Republic of Belarus, a sovereign independent state with its own government, constitution, state emblem, flag and anthem. Belarus is a member-state of the CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States) and one of the UN (United Nations) founder-members.

Belarus is situated nearly in the centre of Europe in the extreme western part of the East-European Plain within the basins of the Dnieper, the Western Dvina and the Upper Neman. It borders on Poland in the west, the Baltic States — Lithuania and Latvia — in the north-west, on Russia in the north and east, on the Ukraine in the south.

 The country’s relief is flat with hills. The climate of Belarus is moderate continental with mild and humid winters, warm summers and damp autumns.Forests constitute 33 % of the country’s area. In Belarus there are over 20 thousand rivers and lakes. The largest lake is Naroch. The navigation is carried out on the rivers Pripiats, Dnieper, Neman, Berezina and Western Dvina. 

  The forest includes laboratory facilities and a zoo, where such animals like bison, wild boar, and moose can be seen in their natural habitat. This natural sight is on the UNESCO World Heritage list nowadays .

Another worthy place to visit in Belarus is the Mirsky Castle Complex. It is situated in Grodno province and is considered to be a cultural heritage. This Renaissance style castle was built in the 16th century and attracts a great number of visitors each year. Belarus is often described as castle land. Another beautiful castle is situated in Minsk province, in Nesvizh. It is known as the Architectural, Residential and Cultural Complex of the Radziwill Family at Nesvizh.
