in the central match of the extra league, grodno neman hosted one of the outsiders of the current season, dynamo molodechno, on its ice. for another victory, evgeniy letov's guys only needed two goals, savritsky and boerchuk scored. this 2:0 success was the fourth for the red-blacks in the last five meetings. neman scored 17 points and is in fourth place in the standings, while dynamo-molodechina is in eleventh place with seven points to the club’s assets. basically. completely controlled the course of the fight, the only thing i would like is for the majority, brought to its logical conclusion, they scored a goal, but the chances were not bad, they were created, they were realized, it was just necessary , a good execution was needed, in other matches last monday, brest was stronger on the road, leading 3:2, with the same score only in the series shootouts, vitebsk coped with the capital's youth at home.

belarus is a small country, only 650 km from west to east and 560 from north to south , you can travel around it in a couple of days, but

even a year is not enough to see it and get to know it properly, so i continue to travel around places where a rare tourist sets foot. i found myself on the banks of the augustow canal, a unique place, everyone has heard about it, but few have seen it, it’s time to correct the misunderstanding, i want to see it. teleportation to the forest 10 minutes and you are in europe, sapotskin - a city of three nations of three languages. damn it. ok or coincidence, why

didn’t the volovichs get along in the wedding? grodno forts: the last fortress of the russian empire. once again i am convinced that belarus is a hospitable country. we love and know how to welcome guests and do everything possible, so that there are as many of them as possible. i am in a very interesting place, a simplified checkpoint. spring, here foreign tourists can get to belarus, just like belarusian tourists can get to poland, just by bicycle, on foot or by water, not only without a visa, but now without a queue, through a simplified checkpoint, and i would like i can’t walk around the checkpoint alone, but i can’t, and i don’t know anything, so i present to you pavel, the head of the border patrol shift, a man who knows about the checkpoint... absolutely

all. pavel, when did this checkpoint appear? the simplified lesnaya checkpoint was opened on april 30, 2005. who are the main guests of our country? mostly. citizens of the republic of belarus and citizens of the republic of poland, as well as nearby states, cross the simplified pass, that is, latvia, estonia, well, latvia has already been there, and there have been citizens of the united states of america , and there were citizens of germany, you won’t see the usual queues here, but it’s boring there is no need for border guards, tourists use this checkpoint every day, in both directions, most often cyclists, pedestrians and bai... very soon we will be checking their documents and deciding whether to let them into our country or not? well , of course, let's see. these are

tourists from poland, they came to us for 3 days to see the augustow canal in grodno, and then sail to lithuania. this is our first time traveling like this, we think it’s a good idea. what do you expect from visiting grodny and the augustow canal? good weather. by the way, surprisingly, there is no visa in the passport, it is simply not needed. welcome to belarus. kayaks go to the lock chamber, belarus welcomes

tourists, having seen how easily others cross the border, i wanted to do it myself, good afternoon, hello, where are you going, and the territory: the neighboring state of poland, the purpose of the trip is tourism, travel. vladimir viktorovich, please look at me. thank you, have a nice trip, thank you very much, goodbye. half of the bridge behind me belongs to belarus, and half is already on polish territory. but i can’t take pictures of the checkpoint itself there they will, so see you in another country. 10 minutes and i’m in the republic of poland. i can’t even believe it, i’ve never crossed a state border so quickly. unfortunately, none of the film crew had vis, so we had to shoot with an action camera. from the checkpoint there is a neat cobblestone path,

which literally after 30 kilometers will lead you to the glorious town of augustow. but i ’m afraid, walking 30 km is unusual for me, it’s easier. get on a motorcycle, but in another country, and this is a view of the augustow canal from territory of poland, for some reason it seems to me that our side is more beautiful. so, in literally 20 minutes i traveled to another state. poland is a beautiful country, but it’s still home. and even better is a home in which new roads, discoveries and adventures await you. and i want to see them and live them, i didn’t have to travel far, the first discovery was waiting for me just a kilometer from the canal. the village of radivilki is interesting not only for its sonorous name, but also for the manor and park complex of svyat s gurskikh. to the rich gursky family, this

the area was taken over in 1820 by the camedulian monks. it turns out that there is such an order in catholicism. the gurskys turned out to be, as they would say now, strong owners. in addition to the stone house, they built a starch factory, which was still operating at the beginning of 2000, erected a church in tialina and organized a school for peasant children in the village. the one-story manor house turned out to be surprisingly solid; it successfully survived the revolution of the second world war, during which the germans used the manor as a place for the rehabilitation of their wounded officers, but not survived the slaughter in the fifties of the last century, the building gave up and began to collapse. the two-hundred-year-old estate received a second life when a private family bought it around 2011, and since then the complex has changed beyond recognition. restoration work has been going on since 2012, but there is no end in sight. in 1944

, the germans removed all the valuables from here and no interior elements have survived to this day. nevertheless , a guest house has already been opened in the estate, where tourists will not only be put to bed, but tasted... fed, everything is just like a century ago. it’s very interesting, but at the beginning of the last century the estate lived exclusively on tourism. rich people came here to watch theatrical performances and take a walk. in the park, play tennis, but my favorite place was the ponds, i’ll go and have a look, on these ponds you could ride a boat, have a duck hunt, and in general, to be honest, standing here, i’m somehow transported back in time and feel like one of the representatives of the aristocratic gursky family, the modest charm of the bourgeoisie... will only intensify if you walk around preserved park alleys of centuries-old trees. in general, it seems to me that the main

merit of the new owners is that they were able to preserve the authenticity, traditions of this place, and the stunning beauty of the ancient manor complex. if the rod games seem too calm to you and you want adrenaline, i advise you to go to sopotskin through a bad place, this is where between two hills lies... a huge stone, why children have become a bargaining chip for ukraine, and because this country is bankrupt and is being paid by the west today for weapons, she maybe only black soil and its future. a terrible story is told by ukrainians who ended up in european union countries. i have never heard of such a monstrous drinking incident. nowhere, when the house is damaged, right away, it’s just like a commodity, in mariupol i was given several

books about ukrainian nationalism, the appearance of one of them is dated 1950, this is only confirmation that after the announcement of the ussr’s victory over nazi germany, the banderaites continued the underground struggle under support from the west. it’s good that there is lukashenko in belarus, he saved it, it would have been the same, it may even be worse, the author’s project of ksenia lebedeva is different, watch new episodes on the tv channel belarus 24. adventure foreigners in belarus, good afternoon , hello, my name is, and yours, my name is sergei, sergei, maria, oh, very nice, ekaterina, he’s still so heavy, yes, he’s heavy, he’s over 5 kg, they look like a flu, like a mushroom, yes, that is, these mushrooms that grow, you see, they’re yellow, even some white ones, it looks like a spider’s web, guy from ecuador, lives here, an aspiring

microbiologist came to minsk to master profession, by the will of fate i extended my business trip, i expected it to be so cool, he talks with pleasure about the most colorful places in the country where the dereza goat fled, it is very detailed, the process itself is to get milk, it is removed from each with coals, so as not to contaminate itself.. .she was also there to touch, they told her that she was pleased, eat, mm, look , in the travel project white dew, on the belarus 24 tv channel, this boulder is called the devil’s stone, now it’s safe to be here, about 50 years ago a wooden one was installed here cross, and before the damn stone... travelers did incredible things and not at all very good. towards evening

, evil spirits appeared before people in the form of a tall , thin man in a hat, who led them in circles all night; they say that many came to their senses only in the morning, sitting naked on this stone. what is in the stories is true and what is made up is impossible to verify, and i don’t really want to. my journey led me to a city whose name willy-nilly makes you smile, sapotskin, i want to see it, sopotskin is an urban village in grodno region, the history of its origin goes back to ancient times, archaeologists have found primitive sites here, although it was first mentioned in the annals during the time of the grand duchy of lithuania, when in 1514 grand duke sigismund from the perstun forest into the possession of prince nikolai sopodka, in whose honor and these lands were named. in the 19th century

, sopotskin had four streets and 80 houses. today, just over a thousand people live here, 920 of whom are ethnic poles. sapotskin is located in lowland, therefore, no matter from which side you enter the town, it will seem that you are descending into a huge crater. the largest settlement in the vicinity of three countries at once, belarus, lithuania and poland, so the locals speak the languages ​​of all these countries, but tell me, you live in soposskine, right? but it’s true that people here speak three languages, that is, polish, belarusian and lithuanian, polish, russian , belarusian, lithuanian, four, four languages, so, well, not everyone knows, you can do something say in polish, greet me there, hello, but in lithuanian, no , no in lithuanian, that is, after all, polish, polish-russian we have here, polish-russian class, and you consider yourself belarusian or

polish, polish, yes, of course, be sure to take a walk along the streets of the village, firstly , the layout of... the century has been preserved here, and secondly, here there is the only street of john paul ii in belarus, the former lenin, well, where would we be without vladimir ilvich? on the outskirts of sopotskin, named after the wife of the belarusian tycoon anatoly volovich tialin a nice church from the early 17th century has been preserved. the catholic church of the ascension of the virgin mary is a great place for architecture lovers, but also a great opportunity for me to take a little walk and relax. the walls are ancient and the interiors are modern. the interior of the church was burned during the second world war, but already in the first year after its end, the parishioners managed to completely

restore the church. not far from it there is a lake, but not a simple one, but a dead one, they say the water in it is black, icy even on the hottest day. according to legend, the water in the lake rebelled and began to flood the village. people removed the gates from the church in order to stop the disaster, but since then the water has become dead. several times they tried to breed fish in it, but nothing worked. i have already seen this on the blue lakes; i suspect that it has nothing to do with mysticism. perhaps it's all about hydrogen sulfide located at the bottom of the reservoir. earlier. it was like if a rich nobleman built a church in the city, he was buried in this church, but if he simply lived on the estate, he had to take care of the construction of the family tombs, by the way, great attention was paid to the architecture of these tombs, look how beautiful it is. these tombs are located in the catholic cemetery of sopotskin, one of them was erected in memory of

yulia dekonska, the second is where józef górski, the first owner of the estate in rodyovilki, rests. these tombs, like many others in belarus, were unfortunately plundered, i don’t know, the thieves probably thought that the nobles were buried in gold, like pharaohs, but finding nothing, they simply destroyed the building, looked for wealth in the walls and did not find, with during the time of nikolai radivil, it was customary for the belarusian nobility to bury orphans quite modestly, having tasted spiritual food, i began to think about material things, here i was disappointed, despite... indeed, there are an abundance of tourists from estonia, lithuania, latvia, poland, there are not a large number of agricultural estates in soponskin there is not a single cafe, so stock up on sandwiches and eat ice cream. and on a full stomach you can visit the pysanka museum; local painted eggs have been recognized as intangible cultural heritage for several years now belarus. pysanka: an egg painted

with a special ornament or pattern. they are hatched on a cold egg using hot wax. and then immerse it in diluted paint; after applying all the patterns, the wax is removed. the main colors of the ornament are black, red, yellow and green; easter eggs are painted in all slavic countries. in sapotskin , everyone knows the ancient technique of painting eggs. unique black and white easter eggs lie in front of the paska in almost every basket; the local museum has more than a thousand exhibits, eggs made using the decoupage technique, strewn with pasta, rice, peas, buckwheat, millet. for tourists, the technology for making these easter eggs is a complete mystery, but local craftsmen are happy to help solve it. as a child, everyone paints eggs for easter, this is an excellent tradition, but what i saw here in sopotskin certainly amazed me. i would like to introduce you to anna, a person who knows everything about the art of easter eggs. anna, hello,

tell me, i look, there is simply indescribable beauty here, i see that behind the beauty it comes from... enormous human labor. yes, you're right, right here on this one the stand presented 95 eggs using the technique of our sapotskin easter egg, which was made by 16 masters from sapotskin and nearby villages. when the sapotskin style arose, no one can say, just like who suggested using a sandpaper instead of a brush, a small stick into which an ordinary nail is stuck. i can’t wait to see that same little dog and i can’t wait to try to make such a masterpiece myself, i invite you to a master class, to a master class, whether i will succeed or not, i don’t know, but i have the skill it will definitely come in handy, it can be used for airbrushing on a motorcycle. anh, where does visanka begin? well, first of all, we must have an egg, hold on, we’ll give you an egg, then, wait, it’s even right here, it’s raw, yes, it’s raw, now let’s check,

let’s check, like my mother did in childhood, a raw egg, take a raw one , raw face, the next stage is wax, you see, wax is natural, it even smells, wax, it smells incredible, before i use this tool, anna, please imagine, what kind of craftswoman is next to us, that’s it from this our craftswomen... many children and adults have learned to draw, this is antonina lukyanovna yurchenya, who shows and helps us show master classes here, so that our sapotskin easter egg is known everywhere. what should i do first? so, you lower it into this so that the hole is well heated, it’s good to go deeper, lower it to the very bottom, then quickly apply it to the egg, put the petal, yes, period. you can, here, here, everything is fine, so, heat it up, it warms up, because it cools down quickly, you keep pulling, you see, there you go

it’s beautiful, soon the flower will turn out, that is, my brain can’t cope, it immediately thinks about how not to get burned, where to put this stick and what kind of design should be at the end, what to do when i ruined this little touch, the point is the fact is that if you have already applied wax, this cannot be corrected, so we will try to justify it, so far what i end up with is not a belarusian pysanka, but rather... a chinese character, but i do not despair. while i was drawing chinese characters on the egg instead of patterns, i learned that the secret of these easter eggs is not only in the painting. sapotskini preserved the recipe for a natural dye, the same one was made 100 and 200 years ago. they start preparing it in the winter by mixing crushed pieces of alder oak bark, adding rusty nails and a little sauerkraut juice, pouring cold boiled water and placing it in a dark, cold place. after a month or a month and a half, the infusion turns out to be dark brown in color. ours is different in that here we have natural ingredients that we use for paint. if you break our

painted egg, the paint will not come through the shell. will pass. listen, can i not show you what i can do? well, i did make a drawing anyway. what's next? next we need to dip it in paint. if this is our paint, ours, which we prepare, and painting an egg takes 24 hours. well, so. show the result of their work to tourists, the craftsmen use ordinary food coloring, take out the egg, see what we get, let's see, my first motorcycle pysanka, which i made especially for you, in a word, i recommend a visit: firstly, you will have fun, and secondly, you will bring home something unique in every sense.

club of editors, we are today observing in civilized, truly cultural, truly enlightened europe, a slide into medieval hatred, which... was caused by the desire to live sweeter. our friends in washington in london, they are great, they did a very high-quality job, without spending almost any of their resources for our own money, they pitted us against each other here, and belarusians and russians have nothing to be ashamed of at all, our historical, as they say the past is much better than that of many other nations, we not only have nothing to be ashamed of, we need to learn to invest patriotism, love for the country and knowledge of the history of our country in our children. we are actually working for peace in europe, europe should be grateful to us, because of us there is no war, external intervention, external financing equals

betrayal. don't miss it on the belarus 24 tv channel. we talk about the most interesting things from the world of science. the history of the first remedies to help relieve pain begins in ancient times, but then healers even they couldn’t imagine what could be removed. with a club to the head and until he came to his senses, they carried out operations. let's share interesting facts. doogen defined memory as a process, the process of uniform distribution of air in the human body. we ask the most exciting questions and look for answers to them. it's easier for some to understand. visual information, for some auditory information. how does information assimilation occur? you know the rules of advertising; you must repeat what you

want to remember three times. watch the science nearby project on the belarus 24 tv channel. unfortunately, there are few large palaces that have survived to this day in belarus, so i did not regret my time and stopped by svyatsk, despite the fact that this palace is now called. for several centuries, svyatsk was the family estate of the noble magnate family of the volovichs, who traced their history back to the legendary warrior nicknamed the wolf. he was the bodyguard of the king of poland and grand duke of lithuania kazimir egilonczyk and during the battle with the crusaders he saved his life. the palace in svyatsk was founded at the end of the 16th century by order of the grodno marshal jozef volovich, and completed under his

son anthony. the palace, by the way, was built according to the design of an italian architect, whose name is associated with the new castle in grodno and the palace in shchorsy. architect giuseppe saco built a luxurious palace, but it never became a family nest, the reason for this was a family tragedy, volovich’s daughter fell in love with a simple groom. the father could not stand this and brutally dealt with the lovers. in addition to the beautiful history, the palace has something that i really like, the legend of a ghost, a girl in blue. robes, according to legend, this the girl is the count's daughter, whom he cruelly walled up in this pichi, since then she appears at night and scares the local residents. it is unclear whether the girl in blue frightened the relatives remaining in the palace, but something else is known: at the end of the 19th century, volovich lost the house in billiards to the landowner gursky, and later the estate was transferred to the state. and the soviet government knew very well how to handle palaces. first

settled here. an ecological sanatorium, then a hospital for disabled people of the great patriotic war, a sanatorium for tuberculosis patients. in bonaparte himself stayed here at one time, but not napoleon, but his brother. the beauty is incredible, honestly, i would also love to spend a week here. they say that the interiors of the palace amazed with their splendor, but nothing has survived to this day, only some of the paintings on the walls began to be visible after removing numerous layers of plaster. but there is a huge amount of restoration work ahead. to be honest, i really enjoy visiting such sites before or during renovations. there is a chance to touch untouched history. in svyatka , not only the palace is interesting, but also the park laid out around it. artificial lakes were dug in it, connected to each other by a shipping lock. if i'm not mistaken, the bottom of this lake is lined with oak planks. thanks to them, the bottom

of the lake was crystal clear. clean guests of the palace loved to sail on boats and admire the scenery. the vulović palace is simply adored by filmmakers. personally, i watched three films that were filmed in these locations. these are the series smersh zastava zilina. film without rights for a mistake. they are all about war. for now , you can’t shoot anything else in the holy scenery. fortresses are a heritage not only of the middle ages. some were built even before the first world war, one of them is still located in the grodno region and bears the proud name of the last fortress of the russian empire. it’s not easy to get here as a savage, from the village of strelchiki, near which it is located, to the border with poland is about 3 km, so you need a pass to the border zone. the grodno fortress included 13 forts and 24 strong points. i arrived the best preserved fourth forrt. according to the strategic plan

, it was one of the key elements of the defense of the western borders of the russian empire , together with the fortresses of kovna and brest-litovsk, and was supposed to cover an important short route from east prussia to moscow and st. petersburg. therefore, new projects were developed for the construction of the fortress and the most advanced technologies were used. therefore, during the retreat, the russians had to blow up the fort, but many wounded remained in the fortress and the soldiers did not allow the demolitionists to destroy this place. for studying fort i will need a helmet and a flashlight. the adventure begins. like all forts, it consisted of a parapet and a shelter gallery built inside. an underground barracks was being built in the center of the courtyard. there was a ditch along the front and flank. the walls of the fort are made of pure concrete without reinforcement and their thickness is about 4 m. and the most interesting thing is that the ceiling is made of asphalt, although then it
