Across the river is Zadvinye, now an almost unremarkable area. But there was a border between the two sections of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (1772-93) along the Dvina, and Polotsk was a provincial city in 1776-96. Zadvinye remained Lithuanian, and I think its inhabitants felt about the same as the current inhabitants of the Far East, looking across the Amur at the growing Heihe and Fuyuan. However, their fears were short-lived - soon Vilnius, Grodno and Kamenets-Podolsky were under Russia, and a little later Warsaw itself.

The fact that there is a beach is already a good thing) But entering the water is bad, the water itself seems very dirty.
