Industrial tourism in Belarus.

Belarus is opening up a unique and dynamically developing destination for travelers — industrial tourism.

This is an opportunity to look behind the scenes of the giants of industry, see the power of modern production and touch the history that is happening before our eyes. This format of travel is ideal for those who are looking for non-standard routes and want to understand how world-famous brands are created.

At the legendary BelAZ plant, you will meet real giants — record-breaking mining dump trucks. The tour includes visits to the assembly shops and the museum, and the main attraction will be the opportunity to climb into the cabin of one of the giants.

The scale of the extractive industry is no less impressive. In Mikashevichi, you will find a grand granite quarry with a depth of up to 150 meters, where multi-ton BelAZ trucks move along serpentines of roads.

And near Soligorsk, futuristic terricons rise — man-made "Martian" landscapes formed as a result of the work of the Belaruskali enterprise. These species are amazing and prove how humans can transform nature.

For connoisseurs of the elegant and beautiful, the Gomel Jewelry Factory 'Crystal' is a must. Here you will witness the full cycle of jewelry creation from diamond cutting to working with precious metals.

And in the Berezovka glass factory "Neman" there is an atmosphere of ancient craft, where glassblowers manually create crystal masterpieces from molten mass.

An interesting stop will be the Oil Museum in Rechitsa, the cradle of the Belarusian oil industry. Interactive exhibits, a virtual well and a themed cafe offer a complete immersion in the theme of "black gold".

Industrial tourism in Belarus is a fascinating synthesis of technology, history and incredible sights. It allows you to take a fresh look at the country, assess the power of its industry and see processes that are usually hidden from prying eyes.
