we choose the best routes only for our viewers. that’s how, according to chronicles , this place was called from the 15th century. and there are many attractions here. i'll try to tell you about everyone. it's high and we start dating. and we set off on an exciting journey. by the way, there used to be several units in the city. water mills, wire mills, and a little later even electric mills appeared. and many tourists claim that inside you can find the remains of wall paintings. i also met witnesses who wished to remain behind the scenes. but they assured that sometimes during

church services large wings appear in the chapel to show how unusually wonderful our country is. road between sino and shklov, in some places it is very picturesque , similar to an english park. this is an entry from the diary of catherine ii. there was once a stone catholic shrine here, which appeared on this place thanks to idviga tadeusz agininsky. consider that you haven’t been to sinoy? if you haven’t tried the spring water, people come from neighboring areas and villages to get it; they believe it has healing powers. watch the program cities of belarus on the belarus 24 tv channel

. hello, i’m vasya chekhov, an ordinary resident of a big city. i can't imagine my life without high-speed internet, electric scooter and coffee in the morning. on the terrace of the makiata coffee shop, every week i will try to understand why more and more people are changing life from the city to the village. a year before covid, our hero collected loans and won a destroyed 17th century mill at an auction, then covid happened, the money and tourists ran out. we will find out today how he survived and what happened to the mill. let's get acquainted. hello, my name is vasya. gennady, good afternoon. gennady, very nice. thank you. great gennady, while we were driving, i couldn’t believe it, that among the village houses, ordinary ones, somewhere dachas, somewhere villages, maybe there is such beauty, the uninitiated, seeing this building, will say that i don’t know, a castle, a manor, an estate, but in fact it’s a mill , this is a mill, a mill of the 19th century, it has been preserved, of course, not in

the form in which we see it now, i will show photographs of how it was, but like in that cartoon, we built, built, finally built, 19th century and this ... i understand, this is not a documented date of construction, yes, this is not documented, the first one is the date mentions, in 1888 there was a mention of this object, that the mill was insured, and since it was insured, accordingly it was already an object, that’s how long it was an object to establish before summarily, no one knows, but some knowledgeable people said that well, it looks like it not the 19th century, i was already so tense for the fight. century and not just a mill, but a mill built in accordance with all the laws, a mill that can operate 365 days a year and does not depend in any way on the wind or

weather conditions, we’ll talk about this in more detail a little later, why do you need this, the next question is, no, that won’t work, we didn’t agree that way, this... the most important question, perhaps, is the question on which our program is based, why? about 5-8, 10 years ago, our company was engaged, well, it is still engaged in tourism, and alone, it was one of the leading, if not the main, in receiving tourists, everything in our region, i think, is 70-80 percent organized if we had a tourist, it would go through our company, tourism in belarus, tourism entering the region. yeah, to the region, well, then, then everything practical is practical calculation, actually we need some kind of object for a tourist , well, it’s one thing to take a group of tourists, take them to one, take them to a second one, pay, take them

to a third object to pay , why shouldn’t our object be among these objects, so why, why pay other people money, to other companies, to other objects, if we can do anything. do it ourselves and we will instantly integrate it into this business, well, that’s why such a proposal arose, why not, and the most important thing is to feed, spend the night, show, tell, something else, that is some kind of object that can generate money itself, well, that’s how it turned out, and it really did work out. according to gennady, the object began generating money almost immediately after the purchase, which, by the way, also has an interesting story connected with it, which we will definitely return to. we deliberately moved further away so that there would be a gorgeous view, so that we could feel, and this is a river, no, this is a former river, now it is lake prut, but in general

our mill was built in a really rich way on the river, one wing on one bank of the river, the second on the second bank of the river, and the river flows right through the basement. and here ’s what... characteristically, we don’t see any external blades on this mill, yes, the uninitiated may have a question, how does this mill actually work, and how does it grind? ordinary, ordinary mill mechanisms froze in winter and did not work, but this mill was built taking into account the fact that the business should work all year round, including in winter, the river does not freeze, in this place, in this place the river does not freeze, the wheel in warm, spinning, money is earned , that is, look, in ordinary mills, which with...

here the wheel was inside inside and under the building - this is a very correct remark, just the water flowed under the building, it rotated the wheel from below, that is this ... who come to gennady,

this weekend was a weekend, because tourists definitely have it, there is delicious historical food, here you can set up a tent camp right next to the mill itself, here you can definitely relax your soul and body, after all, this like this pure commerce and miscalculation, like that very mill, which should work 365 days a year, or still a piece of interest in the history of the kalpa... there i was in such a tavern, the history of which dates back to 1200 of some year, and there

it's all intentional, there's an old one, there's digging there, black walls, digging as thick as an arm , probably as thick as a palm, not so long ago i was in germany, by chance, in one town, we stopped by, just went for dinner, by chance we ended up in one of the oldest zucchini shops in this city, there are 400 thousand...

belarus celebrated an important holiday for the country, 30 years of the basic law. we created our own history, our own laws, and also wrote them ourselves. what matters is what we get as a result. unsquandered national wealth, preserved sovereignty, security and peace in the native land, growth, prosperity.

its basis is the struggle between the devil and god.

the youth who took to the streets in the twenties are the result of the work that was done with them in the nineties, the generation grew up on western liberal values, europe is not christian, there is no idea there , only money, there must be an idea, and today it is very difficult to change, because the consciousness of any person is conservative, you need to check everything, you need to think. we need to understand what happens if specific archetypes of political behavior, religious behavior, and corrections have been formed there. say don’t be silent, don’t miss new episodes on the belarus 24 tv channel. we chose

this place for a reason. the facade of the mill, it is this facade of the mill that has undergone the greatest changes from the moment when this mill appeared in your place, well, in principle, yes, uh, this mill was almost completely destroyed, uh, including the pediment, the roof, it didn’t exist at all, i’m just trying to restore point by point, how much was changed, there was no roof, there wasn’t, everything was there - everything was a failure, there were four walls, there were five walls, the fifth was an internal partition, but it was also one and a half. everything was flat, then it was all dismantled, disassembled, taken into different piles and sorted, living stones were removed from the wall, which also pose a danger, but before it to dismantle, there was a photograph , they photographed the stone, they dismantled it, cleared it, put everything in its place, as it was, there was such an emotional

state when you throw a grenade in, so that it all falls apart. and then the headache is over, if i understand correctly, you could have purchased several apartments at once, say in minsk, instead of dealing with this whole story, without comment. now, when i doubt whether i should start renovating my apartment or not, i will remember gennady and his courage. against the backdrop of this mill and the magnitude of the effort and money invested, you understand, re-pasting the wallpaper in the kitchen is nothing. it's visible here now. water in the 21st century , there is a small, small pen there, this is all that remains of that big river that flowed right through the basement, and how much water was there in general, this is a full- flowing river, this is a big full-flowing river, the river zhizhma, which flows here 100 meters from here, reclamation was carried out, it was straightened, but this is this swamp, these are the remains of the river, the old bed that flowed straight through

basement, well, i think almost all of these arches were in the water, a large arch, which is behind me... behind the walls there was a mechanism, which, in fact, was the heart of this mill, the wheel that rotated, that is, by and large you can you just stepped here, took the next step and you ended up in the bathroom, and you and you went right under the mill wheel, which by the way happened during the second world war, when the germans of one person...

you can’t buy them, you can somehow take them for rent for restoration, or am i wrong, like happened in washington, there is an old mill, an old mill has been destroyed , which is nowhere in the wasteworks, nowhere is it working, not put into operation, it is destroyed and is in use, its book value, well, let’s say there is a million dollars, so an auction is announced for a million dollars, well, there are no fools. uh-huh, the next one, after a while the price in half is 5000 dollars, a new auction, here you appear, no, early, okay, third auction, the price in half again, 250 thousand dollars, take your time, i didn’t show up there either, i appeared either at the fourth or fifth auction, when it was clear that the fate of

this object would not be sold, and accordingly the conditions were changed. the mills are a very interesting place that i, as a guest, simply must visit. you promised that we would come to the heart of the mill, where once there was the very mechanism

that was driven by the river, and we will see all this, well, not that we will see, it is clear that there is no mechanism now, but this place will be saturated energy of the mill, and looking at these lights, looking at this device, i i understand that it doesn’t smell like a mill here, it smells completely different. if we’re talking about smells, we try it on, it’s very good, yeah, it’s convenient, yes , yes, yes, you, you asked where the day is, where the money comes from, but you don’t have to press it, okay, and so, yes, here, well , now let’s wait, let’s haggle, where did the money come from, yeah, how much did we spend on money, where do we get it from, i wouldn’t be surprised if in one of the rooms there is already some previous presenter who came to you and asked - you’ve already seen it, also cool, just installed, installed in in the list castle , this is all this, there are a lot of them, there were other exhibits, and

then soon after that they left for austria to ski in salzburg, salzburg is austria, there is a large fortress hohen saalzburg, that is, the upper one, there’s a big castle there, we were on an excursion, and there’s also a cell there, and there’s a torture chamber, but it’s... there behind the glass, somewhere like that, so, let’s say, yes, and my daughter says: oh, oh with us it’s much more interesting, the visitor turns around, and where is it in russian, daughter, well, we, it’s in belarus, lida, yes, this is more interesting with you, we visited you the day before yesterday, it was more interesting with you, the torture chamber, that is, this is the story, returning to the story with the auction, not so much the money, but his... majesty the case decreed this, that this mill ended up with our hero. gennady remembers the auction itself as if it were yesterday. the next price is 20 rubles. 13 participants,

the next price is 40 rubles. 13 participants, everyone, everyone wants, everyone is playing, everyone is gambling, this is a wonderful building in a magnificent context, in the words of the presenter, beautiful the building in excellent condition is estimated at 25,000 dollars, my hand has already dropped, everything else doesn’t work there either, no, that’s enough, then, where, where, let’s go, that’s it, it was further, it was sold for 3,300 dollars, it was already sold, yeah, uh, i was driving home with a colleague, well, naturally, it was already worth it, nothing, because well, well, i lost, and it’s not interesting to lose, yes, that’s it, but then, as it turned out, well, we live in difficult economic conditions, in difficult conditions in the office, it so happened that the new owner i decided not to refuse, well , there is a refusal procedure, and six months later i again

see that it is again being sold for one basic price, i’ll get some more, yeah, well, it’s fate, so that means it’s necessary, well, let’s go to grodno again , again at the auction, we are leading, so you already, so what are you saying, well, i ran out of money earlier? our region through the eyes of foreigners, in fact, everyone knows, especially those who come here, they know

about the beauty of minsk, as for me, i like everything here, it’s clear that the country is clean, quiet, but for me it would be better to live in belarus, how they ended up in belarus and why they stayed to live here, i... came to belarus from syria, came here to study, i still live for 25 years in belarus, yes, no one perceived me as a stranger, the first time i came i came to belarus, it was 2011 , as a tourist, then i met my wife , it’s just that the tourist ended, that after the wife, the tourist ended, the “look at belarus” project: what i like about belarus is that you can raise your children the way you want. watch on

tv channel. belarus 24. adventures foreigners in belarus. good afternoon. vladimir. what about a beautiful boy or girl? boy, his name is murimis. we don't scare the horse. we ourselves are not afraid, if something is unclear, we ask. you can see everything so cool here, right there. beautiful, beautiful. i sit, i sit. the ecuadorian has lived here for 8 years. and travels through our cities and villages. must be done. the movements are so smooth that in order to cut it, yes, you need to twist it, that’s all and we dip it with pleasure and talks about the most colorful places in the country, our ice training rink, and here they do the national teams u17 and u18 are belarusian, yes, it’s cool, they are so solid, yes, solid, tough and sharp, yes, a dangerous thing, hey, no,

no, i can’t, that’s it. here’s a round nickel, there will be trees, grass, some kind of gazebo, one table, a bridge, they started it somehow and that’s it, this island wasn’t here in the basic configuration of the mill or it was, there would have been an island in the basic configuration, the only thing it had such a shapeless appearance, but now we are putting it in order a little, making a fortification wall like a bastion.

of course there won’t be guns, yes , that’s not it, there’s no need, it’s not the right time, well, it will just be, as i already said, an island for a ceremony, for a wedding, that’s the first thing i wanted to say when i found myself here on this island, that’s put it right here, white white tent, yes please, do it, do the ceremony , spend it, have a blast, here, here again we see the same place, the same bridge over which we passed, and here again is this river.

well, there was a desire, there were different emotions, joy, great, of course, well, then really i had to do something, i had to poke my nose in everywhere, see how it all worked, how it was, how it was in general, there was a desire to throw it away, try to find it somewhere, buy it, throw a grenade inside so that it would be like that... it decomposed, it all ended at once, but then there was still some common sense, emotions are not the best provider for business, a design institute was ordered, the services of a design institute were checked, looked at , don’t worry, it will stand, cracks, no big deal , that's normal, that's it, they got me they calmed down, and then the methodical

investment of money began for... not quite like that, in order to invest money, you need to find it, but this was even before covid, then there were movements in both inbound tourism and outbound tourism, money were located, invested, that is, the company fell into slavery for about seven years, yeah, but almost all the money that the organization earned had to be invested, well, that’s right here, these were loans, these were also... the company’s own funds that it earned , nested, but also and so it happened that covid happened here. need i say what unrest the tourism industry experienced during covid? it was hard for everyone, but our hero still has loans. i’m sure the bank is having a hard time accepting excuses like this for me now. this is all wild crushed stone,

attention from. man, yes, yes, of course, it’s good that they established this, of course, this is the first fact, the second fact, the 19th century, at least, yes, uh, how could this well be drilled? how could they drill an even, identical diameter in the 19th century without hammer drills, wait, if we take the 19th century, and if it’s still like that , well, accordingly, we draw another asterisk for complication, well, i don’t know, i don’t know how to do it now, just like that, no , it’s easy to split, drill, drill something like that such a hole, in winter, pour in water, it will freeze, the camera will break, in summer, hammer in a wooden wedge, water. but how to drill this, this umbrella, how to do everything, i was intrigued by how yes, technology 3.0 years ago, the egyptian pyramids were built in the same way, a wooden peg, sand

is manually drilled at a speed of 1 mm per year per hour or or per day or per year, well, labor was such a consumable material, well... this is a wooden stick, yes, exactly wooden, in stone, stone, sand, yes, sand served as an abrasive, wood was the carrier having created this, this was thrown out, now in my collection of stories and knowledge that i can brag to my friends there is one more story. how does your wife feel about this hobby of yours, because there are men who have a garage and this is a relatively small hobby, although the garage takes a lot of time, you sorry mill. either the 14th or 19th centuries, how about this? there is such an anecdote: a boy comes running: mom, mom, dad , he hit his finger with a hammer, what did he say, but you don’t allow me, but can you use those words that

you don’t allow, no, you can’t, he remained silent, so, well , the wife remained silent, uh, uh, for several weeks, but what was it like after the decision? at first i consulted, but she was against it, but well, the character is stupid, well, what can you do with it, well, so it came, well, the woman’s fate was resigned, well, what to do, well, well, and since this now with modern tourism it’s a sad time. now modern tourism is sad, sending tourists to some kind of conditional egypt is an event on an urban scale, of course, there are no flows, no movements, but this object brings benefits, well, accordingly,

this humility has already grown into acceptance, into acceptance, yes , it’s like chains of acceptance, acceptance, everything, and now this, well, this is part. but what i said was never heard in your family, so our day has come to an end about the past, already about the present, we talked a lot, although i would like more, but alas, airtime is strictly limited, about the future, what would you like to bring here in the future? add, well, in addition to doing everything that i wanted, well , at least finish, finish what was started, but as i say, zhvanetsky can stop it, and not finish it, yes, there are many, many ideas that have not even been started yet , an implementation

that hasn’t even started to be implemented yet, so will it be enough, will there be enough time, well, i don’t know, it doesn’t depend on me, well, gennady, then all hope for you?
