With its grand boulevards and big squares, Minsk is all about monumental excess, but its Old Town is tiny and not particularly old at all - most of the city had been rebuilt following the demolition in WWII. The best place to start exploring Minsk is at the Independence Square with its statue of Lenin and the Belarusian University building. Some of the best views over the city unfold from atop the futuristic structure of Belarus' National Library. 

But you can look at Minsk right now! Incredible photos of Dmitry Vazhnik tell about the city a lot of new and interesting things.
