Cultural Overview Of Belarus

The cultural scene is very diverse with the Belarussian Ballet, the Minsk Puppet Theatre and museums such as the National Museum of Belarussian History and Culture. The suburbs of Troitskoye Predmestye take you back to 19th century Minsk with its quaint houses and colourful facades lining the streets.

The Belarussian craftsmen make wooden caskets, trinket boxes, straw items and decorative plates.
