Living in Minsk

personal highlights

  1. Districts: most blocks are built all around the city center
  2. Impressions: ugly, but charming aggregation of concrete
  3. Architecture: everyting is practical to accommodate millions
  4. Decoration: some buildings have fancy soviet themed walls
  5. Interiour: more colorful and quite retro patterned wallpapers
