This tour will introduce you to the main sights and historical and cultural values of the region: ancient religious buildings of various faiths and architectural styles; a very beautiful and unusual railway station, the very first in Belarus, where famous films were shot; and at the end of the tour you will have an unforgettable journey along a narrow-gauge railway against the backdrop of wild nature!
