Minsk Belarus. City | Sights | People

I will need to research more on Minsk. I've been out of America for 5 years, and presently in India. I'm now wondering about Minsk in the event geopolitics change. I hope to stay here, though. I love the people and the culture (AND the food!).

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.

Not flooded by Indians n Chinese and arabs working as taxi drivers is discrimination like everywhere in the west..? I call that paradise!

many young people visit this country because of the girls, belarusian girls are insanely beautiful

Excellent video. But surprised you did not cover the amazing Orthodox Churches in Minsk. It’s impossible to fully appreciate Belarus apart from its cultural heritage from Eastern Orthodoxy. At a minimum, a video on Minks should have covered the architectural wonder of the Holy Spirit Cathedral and the importance to Orthodox life there of St. Elisabeth Monastery.

This is such a beautiful city i really want to visit.

Such a beautiful and clean city.Even central and other European countries are not clean and safe anymore.They are now turning like third world countries.

Through out the video my mouth was open with awestruck beauty of this city. Wish I live in this place after retirement

Prelep grad!

I am from Kaliningrad, Russia but I have family in Minsk and my great grandma was from Belarus, I always wondered what Belarus looks like so I decided to watch this video, I can now safely say that I am proud to be part Belarusian.

I wêlt rîghtly gitter te ga æn bissit Mînsk gif I ivfer kælt gæt út-tharre. Hit siems leik æ verræ skienly, kleyn æn agierent chæster.

Why would anyone need ikea or especially STARBUCKS? 🤔

Minsk seems to be one of the few places that tourists can visit without fear of crime or disruptive demonstrations. The safety of the city looks like a really good draw for tourists.

Lovely

Good thing that Belarus was able to avert the multiple attempts of CIA sponsored Orange Revolutions.

Beautiful ❤️

Too many tourists will only destroy this beautiful city. Controlled tourism is only option.

Might be a fairly nice looking city, but it's in a country connected to and maybe controlled by Russia, so not a place I'd visit.

Belarus is Putin's puppet state, with a dictator appointed by Putin. Belarus is complicit in Putin's invasion of Ukraine. Don't spend your tourist money in Belarus.

Love From Bangladesh. A beautiful city

I was in Minsk a few nights in 2012 after going on the trans mongolian railway, then through the Baltic states as a solo traveller using local transport. Minsk is very clean and I found the people very friendly to tourist, more so than what I experience in Russia. Few spoke any English and few signs, menus, or Museums (Great Patriotic war Museum) had any English. At a supermarket the people went out of their way to help me even though they didn't speak English. I saw quite a few pretty skinny women.

On the downside outside of the Victory Park area, the buildings are very drab Soviet style and the shops don't have much to sell. A 7 day tourist visa was difficult to get (I got in Beijing) as there are few consulates and they are bureaucratic. Not really setup for tourist was hassled by a Soviet style border guard who spoke no English for not having Belarus travel insurance (cost me 5 Euro). Then went to Brest and the trains to Poland weren't working and my 7 day visa was about to expire. My travel agent in Minsk arranged an expensive private taxi to Poland, I was told you could wait days at the border, but that was coming into the country, a 2 - 3 day wait according to my taxi driver. Every vehicle is inspected for contraband and goods are sold at the confiscated goods store. I like the Belarus people, but feel sorry they are not free as they should be and they barely get by on a subsistence living unless you are in good with the government.

Well, this aged like milk. 😂

Long live Belarus, Serbia and Russia.

The guy from Santa Barbara does not sound like he’s from Santa Barbara. It sounds like some kind of agent that has worked on an American accent really hard. He speaks with his hands too much to be from there.

can i use this in a video?

Beautiful Minsk I want a go there so clean

So Minsk doesn't feel like Europe?
What continent does it feel like belonging to then?
What does Europe feel like?
'And now they have electronic timetables at the bus stops just look like in Europe'
My god, this was an embarrassing watch!

I have seen all your videos. You cover nicely and give relevant information about countries and cities. Very nice keep it up.

Only slim people. So beautiful

Seems like a safer, more respectful, cleaner & greener city than Detroit, Houston, Denver, Los Angeles, Portland, New Orleans, Chicago, Baltimore, Atlanta, Charlotte, New York (and many smaller but dangerous American cities).

I have been in Minsk for three years ago n still remembered it. Often googled it to view Belarus. Watching it from 🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩

My family is from Minsk

🇷🇸❤️🇧🇾🇷🇸❤️🇧🇾🇷🇸❤️🇧🇾

Belarusian choco is really good

There is also 3rd and 4rd underground line planned. 3rd line is ready only for 4 stations but it is gonna be continued

Looks good

very smart country🗻🗻🏕🏜🏝🏞🐷

Watched this and went to minsk and few other parts of belarus.. i have to say dude... their women are fun. If youre like me, and love a challenge with hot women... go. Man i had a blast. There is a bar with over 100 different types of beer from all over the world. Great place to pickup women. I speak russian but do not know how to spell the bar name out but its in october Square. NOT calvin Coolidge bar

Why do women in East European countries like wearing pantyhose? I do not think it is due to the climate...

Much better safer & cleaner than London!

Land of beautiful girls...

Thank you Cool Vision.

“Belarus has no migrant workers, all the janitors and stuff are all local workers, some see this as discrimination”

Local coffee places over qualify Starbucks in any directions. Same for IKEA, local furniture manufacturers overkill 50% of IKEAs ctalaoue. so… it’s not a bad thing at all.

for something spacial form IKEA you may go to Vilnus.
