Ideas for spring travel in Belarus.

Spring in Belarus is an ideal time to travel.

Here are the top locations according to current recommendations:

Gomel and Vetka.

Explore the palace and park complex in Gomel and the Sozh Embankment. Enjoy the riot of tulips of all kinds and colours in Gomel Park (late April - May).

15 km from the city, visit the Museum of the Old Believers in Vetka with unique icons and manuscripts.

A unique phenomenon is the spring floods of Pripyat ("Sea of Herodotus"), go kayaking among the flooded forests (March—April).

Turov: birdwatching paradise.

Polesie is the best place for bird watching in Europe. Visit the Turovsky Meadow, observe thousands of migratory birds, or participate in banding in the Sporovsky Nature Reserve (late April – May).

Polesie is the warmest region where spring comes earlier.

Take a walk around old Pinsk and attend an organ concert.

Tyshkovichi: the tulip field.

Here you will see a sea of blooming tulips - the Belarusian Holland.

Cultural events.

Visit Maslenitsa in Sula Park (fire shows, performances) or the Night of Museums in the village of Ozertso (May 18) with bonfires and traditional music.

Yelnya swamp: the flowering of the fluff.

A unique sight - white "puffer jackets" cover the swamp by the end of May, like Japanese sakura. Walk through the ecotrope, enjoying the clean air and endless carpets of flowers.

Plan your trip in advance to capture key events and enjoy the country during the most scenic season!
