With a population of almost 2 million, Minsk is one of the largest cities in Europe and, thanks to its geographical location, forms an ideal link between East and West. While other European cities from Paris to Prague attract millions of tourists every year, Minsk is still a blank page for most.

Some think of Minsk in terms of grey Soviet times or even regard Belarus as a province of Russia....
Take advantage of the lack of knowledge about this city, because for those who like city tours and urban life, Minsk with its architectural landscape and its rich cultural offer will be a new experience.

For those who are ready to leave the usual tourist paths, this city offers the best possibilities in the literal sense, because the city centre and its old town can be explored perfectly on foot. Only the Russian language and the ubiquitous Cyrillic script might be a small challenge for some travellers.

Nevertheless, one does not need to be afraid of contact, the people are open to visitors and there is already a tourist infrastructure and as the year also fairs and congresses take place in the city, the visitor does not have to worry about an adequate accommodation.

There are a lot of hotels of international chains, the other hotels that are still under construction give an outlook on the expected increase of future visitor numbers.
