[000:00:00;00] who gave you this idea, i love ballet, alexander gleb, alexander gleb , absolutely right, this is the correct answer, one of the best football players in the history of belarus , watch the intellectual and entertaining shows on the belarus 24 tv channel . st. sophia cathedral is a symbol of faith, power and independence was built in the 19th century by the great prince of polac vseslav the magician. this is the first stone temple on the territory of belarus. according to scientists, the cathedral was built over five construction seasons. from the st. sophia cathedral of the 21st century, only foundation and fragments of the western and eastern

walls. and we are in a rebuilt church of the 16th century. if you are in sofia, be sure to go down to the lower hall of the museum, here you can see details of byzantine, and to be precise, constantinople masonry. with a hidden, or as it is also called, recessed next to it. the surface has a picturesque, striped structure. and these are the autographs left for us by the ancient masters, david, tuma, mikula. kopys, peter, and varishka wrote: the last name most likely means a native of the varangian. in ancient times the cathedral was not only a religious center. here they received ambassadors, made peace, declared war, kept princely jewelry, the library founded by prince jazislav, signed numerous trade agreements and even

imprisoned princes. to the throne in the 16th century, the temple was blown up, according to one version, this was the work of peter ii, according to another, an explosion in a gunpowder warehouse was a tragic accident, but to tell the truth, i believe much more in the tragic non-accidentality of the first version of the outcome of events, especially knowing about the tough character russian tsar, and remembering his drunken brawl with minshikov, when those in power together deprived... the lives of seven monks. as you leave st. sophia cathedral, don’t miss boris’s stone. previously, in the western dvina basin there were more than ten similar boulders with the same inscriptions with crosses. but only this giant has survived to this day. until now , there is no consensus among scientists about the inscription on the stone. and he also grants wishes. to do this

you need to lean against it. mentally talk about your aspirations, and then walk around the wall three times. my wish, by the way, did not come true, or i was pressed against a stone incorrectly, or maybe the thought was formulated incorrectly, or it went too quickly. in any case, i’m not offended by the epigraphy monument. by the way, it took a very long time to remove boris from the stone; only a japanese crane was able to handle the weight. in the late eighties, the boulder was brought to the upper castle and they thought for a long time which side and where to turn it, but while they were discussing, the chains could not stand it and the stone fell, that is, he made the decision on his own. compared to borisov's boulder, the weight category of the polotsk memorial sign is the cradle

of the belarusian. statehood is complete modest, 8 tons, the height of the sculptural composition is more than 5 m. not far from the borisov stone there is a krynichka and no wonder, every pagan temple had two things nearby: an idol and water, which was considered medicinal. when, in stagnant times, only one church was working in polotsk, the transfiguration church, they did not dare to close it only because it contained relics, in the rossina of polotsk, the townspeople often came here, they said that this water helps cure tuberculosis and removes from the eyes. the guides also adhered to this information, but one of the tourists, instead of the word sglas, heard the word eye, a new legend appeared that you need to wash your eyes in this water and look into these three

holes. about this mysterious place. there will be many legends, one of which the mechanical chapter of socrates has already told us: if the descent of the chain mountain. in the dungeons a kilometer below ground level, you can get into the shrine of our ancestors. as vatslav lostovsky wrote, in the sacred underground city of bogotsk ancient treasures acquired by the back-breaking labor of many generations are hidden, and he whoever gets there will reveal... the secret of immortality, so archaeologists are in no hurry to lay holes, they are waiting for more advanced instruments to appear that will allow them to explore the thickness of the upper castle without destroying it, duplicating an elephant in a china shop,

especially when the price of the issue is immortality, scientists have no desire. this is the zonka weather. it definitely won’t be superfluous, the cavity will also greet us with rain. the unusual bench symbolizes the tension between two cities, ancient polotsk and the german city of friedrich schaffen. lived in this city for quite some time wealthy businessman, karl frankel. during the second world war, he fought in the wehrmacht troops, was seriously injured on ukrainian lands, was almost captured, but according to one version he was ukrainian, and according to another - polotsk. girl, in gratitude for the rescue, for more than 12 years, for christmas, karl frankel gave two chocolates to each resident of polotsk, and when there was a shortage of sunflower oil in the country, she sent this necessary product, these are not all the gifts, a bell

cast in germany for the roman -catholic church of st. andrew baboli, kayaks for athletes, in general, indirectly this bench also reminds us that war is a double-edged knife. the central avenue of polotsk, which logically bears the name of the central figure in belarusian history, francis skarin. and on the square of the same name , a twelve-meter monument, high art, was erected to the great book printer. by the way, many copies were broken in disputes about whether the father of eastern european book printing had a mustache; they say on the only engraving that has come down to us, the first printer without a mustache, and what we take for a mustache is just a treacherous shadow from the nose.

on the other hand, is this so important, because there are much more significant and hitherto unrevealed secrets, not the exact date of death of the enlightener, nor the burial place of francis skarina, are still unknown to scientists, but everyone knows where the leaders of the lenin monuments lie and stand in the city several, at least four. there is even such a riddle. where do you think it is warmer in polotsk - in the city center or at the station. so, in the center, because at the station, vladimir ilyevich is in a coat, and here in a jacket. is on francysk skarina avenue is another interesting attraction, a hypothetical point marking the geographical center. in fact, the center of europe is located a little further, 48 km from the city, near lake sho, but i didn’t tell you that, it’s painfully often, i debunk myths today, let’s do it, this one will be

the last. many believe that yuri tarich was born in polotsk, even a bust was erected to him as a famous fellow countryman, he certainly deserves it, but the light of tarich appeared in a different way. town in plotsk, near warsaw. for participation in the anti-russian uprising near warsaw in the thirties, most likely in the area of ​​the same plock, yuri alekseev was exiled to the tobolsk province. already there he became tarich and retrained from a lawyer and revolutionary to a director. even before the premiere of the iconic tarichevskaya forest belly , the screenwriter of the film, the leading actor, and then the head of... the state chervyakov, adamovich and knorin, who played themselves in the film, were put under repression. in such a situation, advertising tarich’s real place of birth was not only dangerous, but also stupid. every year

a festival of amateur films is held in poloska, i make films named after yuri tarich, and it is not so important where he was born, the main thing is that in polotsk they remember him. we work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to keep you up to date with current events in the country and the world. in addition, our team of journalists obtains valuable knowledge from experts on how to maintain and increase health. there is also room for entertainment. every friday we bring to your attention the best projects and films of our tv channel. this and

i’m sitting high, looking far away, great, 20 monsters. 20 bullets, one me, one you, well, some kind of prize, without today, watch the show, i’m from the village, on our tv channel, this street once bore the name of the leader of the world proletariat, but through the efforts of the townspeople it was returned to its former... this house on nizhnepokrovskaya street, many still call the house of peter ii, believing that in 175, this is where the king stayed, no, studying archival data, local historians came to the conclusion that this is a myth. peter and his light simply did not have enough space in this house. the building of the former treasury, after

the revolution the financial department was located here, it is assumed that it was in this place that vaclav lostovsky found the cross in efrossina bolotskaya. according to rumors, a ghost lives here, a poltergeist who scatters everything, it starts to rain, heavy rain suddenly suddenly bright sun. like the landscapes, the sights of polotsk are very diverse, how do you like this water tower, today it houses one of the best environmental museums in belarus, once this tall, attractive structure supplied water, and now it has become knowledge. there are four levels in the museum: one staircase, but which symbolizes the tree of life, climbing it, step by step we are immersed in the amazing world of nature, which

is not there, the collection numbers more than a thousand exhibits. these huge horns belonged to a primitive aurochs; they were found during the process of draining the swamp. one more the polotsk collegium is rightfully considered the pearl of the ancient city. this. the first higher education institution with university rights on the territory of modern belarus. stefan batory himself was present at the groundbreaking of the collegium building. the coming day is preparing for you what you create today. just think, 200 years ago you could see a similar talking attraction. harry.... peter is resting, in the 16th century, in

the last days of his studies, local students came to the mechanical head and consulted about their future. here history really comes to life, everything is thought out to be cute, and today this university is an undeniable brand of the city. thanks to the efforts of the university staff, an exhibition was created about the history of the polotsk collegium in events and... here, in chronological order, stages from the history of the polotsk collegium complex are presented , starting from its foundation in the 16th century, ending with the present day, when the polotsk state university is located within these walls. in the place of the modern concert hall, in the times of the jesuits there was a refectory, today here come for spiritual food. on the eve

of christmas, university balls are held here, where waltzes of polonaises and sparkling crystal are played, elegant ladies and gentlemen lead unhurriedly. small talk. even today, at the polotsk collegium, dear guests are greeted with hot chocolate, created according to an old recipe by gabriel gruber. the university's courtyard is decorated with a 16th-century well. we discovered and restored it on our own . a good range of specialties at the university made this possible. there are many ideas that are even difficult to implement at first glance. a few seconds and we will witness an action in the style of medieval puppet theaters. yes, yes, musical clocks with academic processions are now available not only in prague and krakow, but in polotsk. along

the small balcony , figures of ifrasinia of polotsk and francisco skarina slowly pass majestically from one door to another. the first architect of the polotsk jesuit collegium peter skarga, the collective image of the professor of the polotsk academy, and of course, the student, admiring the clock, let’s not forget about time, we’ll to use it when talking about polotsk, of course, it is worth remembering an amazing person, such a fellow countryman is a rare success not only... in the context of the 16th century, but to this day, meet samuil gavrilovich petrovsky sitnyanovich, toponemic nickname: polotsk. the belarusian-russian writer, playwright, educator and philosopher is undoubtedly a unique personality. the turning point in

the fate of semeon of polotsk was the order of poetry for the visit of alexei mikhailovich, father of peter ii. the hard times of war at that time somewhat shook the poet’s faith. the power of speech polish-lithuanian commonwealth, and he wrote poetry with the expectation that he would be noticed. he compared alexei mikhailovich to the sun. plus, the king sent a book with astrological predictions, which very soon came true, after which, accordingly, semyon was invited to moscow. since 1667, our fellow countryman has been raising and teaching the royal children, alexei, fyodor and sophia. by the way, he didn’t teach peter sayrevich, though. soviet times, many textbooks attributed this to him. once upon a time this place was the monastery of the polotsk epiphany monastery. it was here that semeon of polotsk took monastic vows. today, this building houses two

unique museums: the museum of the library of the spiritual writer of the belarusian land and the museum of belarusian book printing. here at the fraternal school, before moving to moscow, semyon polotsky taught. the exhibition tells about different periods of the life and work of the belarusian educator, from the earliest period of study in kiev and vilna to moscow. since the moscow period of semyon of polotsk coincided with the baroque era, even for those times he designed his poems in a very non-standard manner. lines of works folded into geometric shapes. a star, a cross, a rhombus and even a heart, this, as far as i understand, is the most famous poem of the enlightener from the cycle of greetings. and semyon of polotsk, they say, was a brilliant astrologer, he was the first to sense the birth of peter ii, and at the moment of birth he incredibly surprised those around him, asked

the heavens not for the speedy appearance of sarevich for the light of god, on the contrary, he persuaded the heavenly office to delay the process. and natalya kirillovna was resolved in at least an hour, and preferably in three. then fate measured petruby had lived for more than 70 years, and he would probably have been remembered as a kind and wise ruler, but alas, the future emperor was born in the first half hour, and in the end he did not even celebrate his sixtieth birthday. how comfortable it is here, a special atmosphere of silence and tranquility, here you can not only... but read a book. the chairs are wooden, there is nothing soft on them, but it is incredibly comfortable to sit, and for people of different heights. a new multimedia stand for the museum, you can read a book of that time in the original, flipping through

virtual pages using the keyboard. this two-level library boasts not only a large number of books, but also the largest globe in belarus. there is only a small dot on it, but you and i know what is actually hidden under it, at least an ancient underground city in which... wealth and legendary secrets, you can reveal the real secrets of the modern city yourself, and it will be only your polotsk. belarus is endless forests, blue rivers and lakes. pristine nature, from which it is impossible to take your eyes off, and also, belarus -

half is covered with forest, lately our fellow citizens have become increasingly interested in their native nature, i want to know more about my home, first of all i want to convey the need to protect our nature, because in the same europe there are no longer such dense virgin forests that we still have in belarus, including in our nalibokskaya pushcha, my name is sergei tumel, i am the deputy director of the

nalibokski republican landscape reserve. my work day officially starts at 8:00 am, ends at 17:00, and generally depends on the situation. our work involves round-the-clock work. responsibilities for nature protection cannot be contained within a certain period of time. i usually go, as we say, to the farm, patrolling, let's say, the territory, that is, you need to look, drive around, see that there are no violations of security legislation in the territory of the reserve.

for example, people staying in the wrong places, lighting fires, disturbing the ground cover, collecting plants, damaging the property of the reserve, that is , you need to keep an eye on all this, go around our tourist sites, which are directly under my jurisdiction, i personally conduct excursions, along our ecological trails we visit our iconic sites tourists with excursionists, it brings me enormous pleasure in the fresh air, working in environmental work , every now and then you’ll definitely meet some kind of animal, it’s very

interesting, the same elk, the same roe deer will run out somewhere, the deer are beautiful. eco is home, that is, it is a science about the surrounding world, to educate visitors and tourists, we have two ecological trails, now we are on the ecological trail be , this composition means the unity of man with nature, that is, here is an embracing man hugging tree, as the deputy head of the reserve, i must have all the information about the reserve, so we work closely with all the employees of our

reserve, mainly with the ranger service. open to tourists, it is not a closed area. this map shows our republican landscape reserve nalibokski , different parts of our reserve are represented in different colors, this is the northern part , our economic zone is indicated in purple, where we can carry out some

hunting tours, to build some kind of biological structures, in reddish-orange color, areas of high security are indicated on this map diagram, these are... areas where some red book plants grow or live red book animals, you cannot be in high security areas , if our employees notice someone in this area, or employees of the wildlife protection inspection, they will politely ask to leave this area again; if someone is noticed there, then of course they will be subject to administrative responsibility. nalebokskaya pushcha occupies an area of ​​about 24,000 hectares. more than a third of this territory, almost 87,000 hectares, is protected by the reserve. it is this territory that has been allocated for protection, since there is a unique bog complex here, which

plays an important role in shaping the climate and not only on the territory of belarus. but on the territory of europe, it is not for nothing that they say that belarus is generally the lungs of all europe, and i believe that the whole nature of belarus, it is unique, the country is developing, large cities, people need unity with nature, large streams of people go to the forest, to relax , to take a break from the hustle and bustle, from the noise... cities leave from this smog, because when you come from a big city to the forest, you just feel dizzy from the oxygen, that’s why people visit such

places, issued meats of belarus with shmatvekavoy history. we can obtain abaronial doilitstva from the right-wing architecture. and all for this period of time round velvets are characteristic. they floated to the pharmaceutical

economic centers of the country and increasingly emergency people. some meats, garads, yakia. magdeburg, in the attacks, the kali pothos prahodzila pobach, tsi is far away, ruined their significance, geta was a self-righteous revaluation, chagunka changed navakolle, culture. on the asvetnitsk project of architecture of belarus. gety kastsel does not finish and ў savetsk period, kali vyalіkaya kolkastsya temple stratsіla its percapachatkovaya meaning. everyone remembers the 50s and has such knowledge
