The monument "Belarus Partizanskaya" amazes and delights with its grandeur and scope.
It is a very cozy and familiar place. In summer it is very beautiful, you can always sit on benches, there is a shop nearby, a great place for walking. In summer, you can sunbathe on the lawn
The further I go, the more I love this monument created by Valentin Pavlovich Zankovich. Especially its lower tier - stunning high reliefs depicting the suffering and heroism of the people in the Great Patriotic War. This tragic and triumphal column is a great accent at the entrance to the city from Gomel and Mogilev.
But I love the square of the same name with fountains, beautiful trees and bushes no less. One problem is that it is often damaged by repair work. Perhaps because the river Layer flows through the pipes under it and there are a lot of all kinds of communications. I hope, however, that this repair itch will one day pass, and the square will find peace.
