Visiting any city for the first time would definitely bring new emotions. Some tourists shared their first impressions about Minsk with us. In fact they are absolutely different people, who are occupied in various and not similar spheres of life. We got the tourists’ opinions about the most beautiful places of our capital and received some suggestions how to make it look better.
One of the tourists says that his most favorite places in Minsk are those where the remains of the old city can be observed. For example, Nemiga str, Lenina str or Nezavisimosti avenue, which are situated not far from the contemporary city center. He points out that the high-tech buildings in Minsk, the number of which is getting bigger year by year, can greatly damage the image of the city. Like it happened to Moscow.

Some people claim that it is not a problem to rent a good flat in Minsk for 200 USD a month. The real estate specialists have calculated that the cost of rent should not be more than 20% of the monthly income of the person. In Minsk this sum is something like $100. But what do we have in reality?

If you are searching for some changes in your life and if you are not afraid of crazy experiments, the new project in Warsaw is something that you definitely need! A new house is being built between two buildings in the center of Warsaw, but the terrifying fact is that the widest place in it is 1.21 meter and the narrowest - 0.71 meter. In spite of this, there will be a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and a living-room. The living conditions in such place certainly require adaptability, as it is similar to as if you were living on the spaceship - the staircase is absolutely vertical.

What is a modern hostel actually? It is a budget accommodation which provides you with a couch (not a separate room), shower, kitchen, where you can cook for yourself and use a free wi-fi. What makes hostels popular with tourists is that such places not only provide you with a bed, but there is always a great opportunity to get to know new people and in most cases there are rooms with different kinds of entertainment like billiards. Before 2012 year tourists with the limited amount of money, who could not afford hotels of Minsk, had the opportunity to live in the hostel Postoyalets, the only hostel at that time.
