Beaches of Belarus
Can a vacation in Belarus become an alternative to traveling to Turkey or the Maldives? Of course, if the budget is limited, they will be able, many will say, but one should not neglect rest surrounded by native nature, especially since this country is rich in many amazing and unusually beautiful places..
The first is the Belarusian "eighth wonder of the world", chalk quarries near Volkovysk, which are very similar to some Pacific island because of the purity and turquoise color of their water and the high shores of soft white sand, similar to whipped cream. The question is often asked whether it is dangerous to be in such water with chalk. The answer is no, it is not dangerous, fish and other river inhabitants live well in the Belarusian "Dead Sea".
The second one is one of the most popular places for recreation in the capital, where, perhaps, the best sandy beaches of Belarus are located - this is the Minsk Sea. This is a very picturesque reservoir, called "the sea" due to its volume. It is equipped with nine sandy beaches, many entertainment options, and countless cafes. Here you can also enjoy a boat or boat trip with an evening panorama of charming Minsk.
The third, also a capital resort, the second most popular is Lake Komsomolskoye. Also a fully equipped place for recreation with beautiful views and a well-groomed beach area. The capital beaches of Belarus are also Krynitsa and Drozdy, on which almost half of Minsk is also sunbathing..
But not only in the capital you can have a good rest on the banks of the river. It is not for nothing that Belarus is called blue-eyed, it is rich in many lakes, on which mainly sanatoriums or resorts are located, most of which have their own private beaches. On the shore, for example, Naroch or Svityaz, you can not only have a great rest, improve your health, but also fish or enjoy a simple vacation on the beach under the rays of the summer Belarusian sun, and for extreme lovers you can organize a wild hike with tents and set up a camping town somewhere on the shores of the Braslav lakes. By the way, there are more than 50 lakes located in the vicinity of Braslav, each of which is not only a picturesque corner of Belarus, but also a cultural heritage of this beautiful country. Fishing is truly a royal pastime here, as Braslav Lakes have over 30 different fish species. A unique reserve with many rare endangered animals is also timed to Braslav, through which excursions for tourists are organized.
In general, it does not matter where you decide to spend your vacation, the main thing to remember is that the places that are near us are in many ways delightful, unique and beautiful, and worthy of our attention..
