you can get to smargon region by taxi in about two hours, by car on the m6 ​​highway it takes about an hour and a half. hello. good afternoon, your branch is the district house of the huk, smargon district center. cultural center, kali laska, we request, we warmly and atmospherically met our film crew at the local house of crafts, they tell every tourist here a special approach, if only creative, open people are always ready to share something new, we are making a straw hat for the smargon bear, the symbol of this wonderful edges, creation

accessory for kosolapov, it’s not a simple matter, but it’s exciting, today you’ll make a bottom like this, well, let’s try , let’s try, for this, it means straw, these are strips of straw, these are ironed straw, because there are such tubes, and then we we iron it out, we get such stripes, which means you need to cut it to size with a small margin. pieces, six strips with pva glue, we will glue the tradition of straw weaving is continued and revived by the employees of the house of crafts. it is no coincidence that our ancestors called this material the sun belarusian land. today it is a well-deserved brand of the marona region. they say the works of art of belarusian masters have no analogues in the world. in general, how difficult is straw weaving? you know.

it’s probably more difficult to prepare it, yeah, firstly, we need to adapt to natural conditions , yes, what kind of weather we have, usually we prepare straw when the sun shines, when it turns golden, there is no moisture, it ’s drier, and we prepare it in the field, let's go, and hand harvesting is a sickle, you do it all yourself you do, with your team, we... go out into the field , put on our beautiful suits, prepare straw, then we need to divide it from a large bunch into small ones so that it dries well, it gets more sun, here on our territory in the acro-town we dry it, and then with the children we prepare it until, well, to work with it, this means we clean it, remove the ring, sort it into bunches, and

we work throughout the fall-winter season. straw weaving in our country is included in the unesco list of intangible cultural heritage. it is known that this craft has been practiced on our lands for more than 1,000 years. residents of the smargon region, for example, considered it the equivalent of gold, and therefore, without a doubt , they could even use it to create luxurious church decoration. in sineoka , approximately 200 craftsmen are engaged in the art of straw weaving, among whom 20 have the honorary title of folk craftsman. we thank our skilled craftswoman, give the missing accessory to the clubfoot and go to where they are ready to tell us about the bears in detail. this is a local history museum, where one of the halls...

the bear academy was opened in the 17th century by the redivils who owned the estate, and already in the eighteenth century, the fame of circus art spread far beyond the city. pavel petrovich, is it true that real stars were made from bears? well, if we say, in normal words, then so, the slaves of the zorak, and we say: such are the glories of belarus, like the belavezhskaya pushcha, the bison, that’s how the old zorkas had the smargon academicians, that’s how the zhartaulivas called ours donkey, they say that, well, let’s say this , the methods of education in training were humane, right? oh, geta vyaduzza meticulous discussions, as everyone remembers histories , which learn histories from the right, where... yes, in recent times, such

a method would have happened, because dresarova was so cruel, but then it became clearer, because the ugly door of these svedaks would be a dzevyatsigadovy claps. of course, i couldn’t help but know nothing , i couldn’t sense anything, it only dissipates those sensitive feelings that were known to me, where the smargon academy knew the adsul sabsharay of smargon between the pages of 1805 and 1811 ami. circus performers of that time were very capable. tricks, they took there are only males to school, gata is not only iztrument drag, but there would have been a movizhment of the reklama, tama pechad yak yakcacna varata prazami kirmysh, abvesizi

prakhi prakhodki ol was the building, nabblezetsts z kamarog demolam from the myadzvedzem, the pavadyrs and the admiral chynas of the state, uh... sensing this kind of cover and sustrechs, well, and of course this river has been extracted by the taxes and yakasts dresiroukki, here we are with you just the same, in int and all gety vind yon vykarystoўsya for this, kali myadzvedze required the team to dat with four paws, jump, stand on the two legs on the hind legs, then i went to the left side of the mowers, the eighth stukali menavita getai nut, and such terrible chins myadzvedz dachshund ў hellish months tre it was called press so quietly and the bear is sleeping .

the radzevils had many debts that needed to be repaid, so they sold the smargon and the academy itself for 65 thousand zlotys. by the way, by that time the figure is enormous. the owner became a representative of the aginsky family, who did not have enough money to finance the bear academy, because just one adult bear needed 10 kg of fresh meat per day, try feeding it, by the way, one of the animals’ favorite delicacies was bagels, or, as they were also called, boiled eggs. and how did the baking business develop, why did it come to naught, well, the first guess is that smargon has such a business as a bakery worker for 17 hundred years, here on the right i found out, all in all, today belarus has a quotation for such great popular specialists our cuisine is belarusian, well and not

only ours, such as salt and sugar for since the beginning of the last century, they were actually small-footed in their strength, they were highly gifted, so in general, it’s surprising, yes, in the 20th century, instead of the whole world exploring new planets, evolving correctly, developing technologies, we are

again and again forced to face with this social monstrosity called fascism, we all see how the situation is developing on our southern borders, on our western borders, the level of terrorist danger is really high. there will be more provocations there will be more attempts at terrorist attacks on the territory of belarus, there will be more attempts to destabilize, especially by the twenty-fourth year, by the twenty-fifth year, by the elections , there will be no way to relax, that’s what’s interesting, it doesn’t work, we can’t demonize, we have created such a unique model of our state, which during the turbulence, into which the whole world has found itself, we ensure security and peace, and we will destroy fascism and there is no other way, the project is objective, do not miss new episodes on the tv channel: autumn continues the harvest festival. baggage is a special event in the belarusian folk
