I have lived in Moscow, Vladivostok, Kiev, Odessa, Almaty, Poltava, Vinnytsia and Dniper....I never visited Belarus until last year. I was absolutely impressed with Minsk and I fell in love with the city and the people. Now i'm looking for another reason to go back to Belarus. for me it was one of the best Russian speaking cities I have ever been in. I LOVE MINSK!! And,..as difficult as it is to believe, Minsk has the best, most beautiful girls in all of the slavic world.

I visited Minsk with a buddy for 3 weeks a couple of years ago. It was my first time out of the United States. It was amazing! The culture is awesome and most of the young Belarusians are learning English so they liked to practice with native English speakers. The city is EXTREMELY clean and the public transportation is fantastic. Best of all for tourist is how unbelievably cheap everything is (except for electronics and imported stuff).

I visited Minsk last December. Everything this video asserts is true, with these qualifiers. English is rare except in establishments that cater to westerners, so be prepared. The people are very reserved - not unfriendly, but even so, you may feel yourself being studied a bit when they realize you are a westerner. They are not used to tourists. Also, do not expect western style service in retail stores. Again, the staff is not rude, but they are not going to trip over themselves to offer their assistance. This may be a holdover from Soviet times. On that note, the city has a definite Soviet feel to it. This can be an attraction in itself, if you want to get a feel for what Soviet life was like. I've been to Moscow but Minsk felt more Soviet. As for the absence of western franchises and chain stores, that is a huge plus. One of the joys of travelling to a foreign country is escaping that sh*t. Finally, the drive or cab ride to Nesvizh and Mir "castles" is definitely worth it. Oh yes... the women are gorgeous (not so much the men. Sorry ladies). A final word of advise: do not ever make light of the Nazis or Second World War in Belarus. Between 25% and 30% of the country's people were killed during the German occupation, and almost all of their villages, towns and cities were completely destroyed.

You don`t realize it has an authoritarian government generally, unless you try to protest without a permit. I`ve never felt worried about it. People are generally friendly and nobody looks at me twice unless I am in a regional city, where I stick out as an unusual visiting foreigner. The food is really good, and there is a growing number of restaurants featuring Asian foods, fast food, fine dining, and fast casual, with several US-based chains. The weather is not at all extreme, and this year`s winter is particularly mild. For the average worker, life is challenging from payday to payday, especially for retirees. I`ve used both private and public health care, and found both good. No plans to move soon. BTW, I`m a US ex-pat.

I`ve lived here in Minsk for over three years, and I really like it. I find the people to be friendly, helpful and they generally live and let live. It`s pretty safe and there is enough to do, especially if you want to see gorgeous, green countryside. Trains and buses throughout the country are inexpensive, and the food has brought me some extra kilos. No reason to leave anytime soon. I`m from southern California, originally. What do I miss? Mexican and Chinese restaurants and groceries. Oh, one more thing: to your question as to why people come to Minsk as tourists. Many, in fact most, tourists are Russians seeking a cheap, safe and beautiful alternative to the Crimean Peninsula and Ukraine as a destination. SInce they feel unwelcome there, and nobody bothers them here, they come and enjoy the casinos (illegal in Russia), shopping and restaurants, but mostly the sheer openness of the wide boulevards with buildings set back away from the streets, wide sidewalks and trees. The net effect is that sounds don`t vibrate in the streets and sunlight or daylight brighten the city more. Entrepreneurs open new, unique shops and bars and it feels interesting.

Great video. We, Belarusians, also with all our hearts love our Homeland, our Minsk. It is really very clean and very safe here, according to these parameters Minsk is included in the world tops. However, the sad fact is that 80% of the population is living for 300-500 dollars a month (at prices comparable to those in Moscow (Russia) or Poland, Lithuania, Bulgaria...) I have my own business and everything is fine, but we must understand that the majority of the population lives hard. Belarusians are not a stupid nation, we still have a good education system, people are hardworking and we are all true Europeans, we share the values ​​of Europeans. I say this for general understanding. Tourism should not be confused with immigration...Unfortunately, a certain number of people are leaving (Russia, Poland, Lithuania)...

This city practically came into being after 1945, it is easier to build in the open field than to interfere in the urban substance. In addition, everything is state-based, so one decision, you live here, tomorrow, if need to, they will transfer you to another apartment block. Do you know what life is like in such a home? Walls 10 cm thick, and dozens of neighbors from various social classes.

@@fromgy7450 No its not state based.People own the flats they live in,you can sell them and do whatever you want. No one decides were do you live. 97% of apartment blocks are relativelty modern(built at least in 1970s) the walls are not 10 cm thick. City wasnt built after the war,it was just extensivly rebuilt due to damage from WW2.In fact the city was founded in 1067 and was a capital of a principality until 1326,when it entered the Great Duchy of Lithuania. After that it was a major economic center up until the 1940s when it was nearly destroyed by ww2.It was also name the capital of BPR(Belasrusian Peoples Republic) in 1918

My current favorite European city ♥♥ I have traveled there several times and even by cold winter it's still a pleasure! Great to see such videos like yours giving info about this city, usually media's videos about Minsk or Belarus are 100% political and have negative bias as they depict Minsk as a dark industrial sad rainy cold city. Your video is (much) closer to reality I've encountered than the MSM videos about Minsk/Belarus. I visited Minsk in Oct 17, May 18, Sep 18 and shortly Jan 19 this month before going by train to another city (Hrodna/Grodno).

One of the best city i've lived in the world. So underrated. It's clean, peaceful, friendly and close to Lithuania, Poland and Latvia to mention a few. I hate to say this - Lukashenko's politics is wild and brutal but damn, he really fixed Minsk. I only wish there's more high paying jobs for the people to make good living.

With regard to wages, you also have to keep in mind that the the purchasing power parity adjustment is about 30% for Belarus, meaning that the exchange rate conversion still leaves a price differential of 30 percent vis a vis the price of goods in the US. So an average monthly wage of $450 is more like $1500 in the US, or close to $18K per year. Which is not bad considering universal healthcare and high public subsidies for things like public transportation. Not a place to be a millionaire, but where you can live comfortably. Which explains how it is among the top 10 countries for equitable income distribution. Just some food for thought.

I visited Minsk in 1997 and it was clean and safe back then, if a little spartan and run down. I couldn't tell one shop from another until I walked in through the revolving doors all shops seemed to have back then as there were no posters or window displays, just a sign on the wall in Russian. How they have smartened up the walkways along the river and the roads which all were full of potholes and roadworks back in 1997. The Opera was US$2 back then and was a brilliant performance. The Metro was flat rate any station of 2000 Belorussian Rubles or 11 cents New Zealand (where I am from) currency. I have wanted to revisit Belarus for quite a while now and my next trip to Europe will include Belarus. Thanks for the great video and commentary!
