Belarus is a relatively lesser known country in Europe that has lots of great places tovisit that most people don’t know about. The country used to be a part of Soviet Union, the remnants of which you can still see here. In most of the small towns, and even in some places in Minsk, capital of Belarus, you will still find monuments of Lenin and Soviet signs. One of the main places to visit in Belarus is Minsk, and we were there during Minsk Half Marathon, a major sport event held as part of the Minsk City Day celebrations.
