Save this! Belarus, a European country perfect for introverts

Save this! Belarus, a European country perfect for introverts If it weren't for my friend's recommendation, I would have missed out on Minsk, a hidden gem! If you're planning a trip during the Lunar New Year, check out this lesser-known destination! Minsk is the capital of Belarus. It's not a big city, but it's very relaxing, and the sunsets are stunning. You can refer to my itinerary for the main attractions. Minsk Railway Station - Gates of Minsk ("Gates of Minsk" is a pair of symmetrical 11-story towers built in the 1950s. It's a landmark of Minsk in the Stalinist style. The left tower has the largest clock in Belarus, with a 3.5-meter diameter dial. It exudes elegance and art, and is worth capturing on camera. It's even more stunning under the lights at night, making it a must-visit spot in Belarus! The right tower has the former Soviet coat of arms, and the tower is carved with images of Soviet heroes such as workers and soldiers. Russian hardcore romance is not innate, but comes from admiration for heroes and awe for life. Holy Spirit Cathedral (It's in the Vilnius Baroque style. The interior of the church is fresh, elegant, and luxurious. The details are decorated with scrolls and curves, and the colorful murals are exquisite. The religious art is rich and overwhelming, and the icon of the Virgin Mary is inside. Saints Simon and Helena Church (Also known as the "Red Church" because of its red brick walls, the Helena Church is very photogenic. It gives me a feeling of coldness, solemnity, and awe, with traces of history clearly visible. The brick-red exterior walls, gray eaves, and tower tops, and the harmonious and extremely symmetrical Russian aesthetic color scheme. The two churches are 2 km apart, which is quite close. It only takes a few minutes to drive, or you can use the walking navigation on the Petal Maps. The roads are clearly displayed, and you can get there while strolling around. The interface and voice navigation are in Chinese, so it's not easy to get lost! In Belarus, many places are in the local language, but you can copy them into Petal Maps and find them. National Academic Bolshoi Opera and Ballet Theatre (It's a pilgrimage site for art lovers, with folk art full of ethnic characteristics, brightly colored traditional costumes, and exquisite wood carvings and embroidery. Each piece tells the story of the wisdom and heritage of the people of Minsk. Opera lovers can buy tickets in advance, and those who don't have time to watch the performances can book a guided tour.)
