We often rent auditoriums for various events. Convenient location, affordable price, and everything in the main architectural wonder of the country.
But of course, security is probably the only point that is very annoying. She was clearly recruited from military institutions, where entry is strictly prohibited. Of course, the management should tell them that people can and should be allowed into the library.
On 08.12.24, there was a conflict with the head of security, a short round uncle with a red face clung to literally every visitor. He accosted us because of the tripods, claiming that this was a professional shooting technique. Moreover, we did not have cameras, we shoot our events on the phone so that everyone would be in the frame. The evil uncle guard said that you can shoot on the phone, but tripods are not allowed)). He comes up with rules on the go)).
We went to the information center, where a nice girl explained to us what can be filmed and what can not be (books). In general, in our case, according to her, access is open to us, and she personally went to the checkpoint to notify the head of security about this. But my uncle did not give up. Principles!! For some reason, expressively, as at the blackboard, he told us that he had been working in security for 14 years and that just anyone would not pass him. And we, the very "random" residents of the Republic of Belarus, taxpayers, for whose taxes that same evil uncle receives a po. Oh well..
A little later, a policeman came out to us, and lo and behold!, he began to ask the head of the guard why he would not let us in. Apparently, he's already got everyone there, both visitors and employees. But my uncle turned out to be completely impenetrable, we already wanted to invite the library management, but we already felt sorry for our time and we still handed over the tripods to the wardrobe, since they did not even fit into the storage room. In general, the head of the guard drank blood and spoiled the day, diligently creating a lot of inconvenience for us.
Dear leadership of the main building of the country, pay attention to the situation. You have thousands of tourists, guests of the capital. Well, it's just a shame to bring someone from the guests there so that the day would not be spoiled along with the memories of the tour.
Yes, of course, security should perform its function. But it's not the first year that we've been your guests and there have been a lot of conversations with the guards, but they always understand the situation and kindly let them through. But this is the first time we have such a case, perhaps this head of security is a new person, if so, then in vain! Please take action.

Admires with its architecture and organization of the space near the Library. It is considered the largest exhibition hall in the Republic of Belarus. The panoramic elevator goes up to the 23rd floor - this is the place for the best views of the Eastern Gate of Minsk and the surrounding area. There are binoculars on the site, as well as indications of what is far below, if you look in the right direction. The playground is secure, fenced with high glass and safe for all visitors and children. It was not possible to get into the library itself due to the weekend. On the 22nd floor there is a cafe Graf Kafe with delicious food and an art gallery. The place charges 100%!!
