A wonderful place for a walk on a summer day. Lots of flowers and other plants. The garden is large. Everything is well-kept.

Our beloved and romantic garden, where we began making plans back in 2000. Always well-kept and blooming in the summer, the Minsk Botanical Garden. I wish it prosperity for centuries to come!

I came to Chelyuskintsev Park to relax. Loud, incomprehensible sounds were coming from the botanical garden, and my head was shaking. Are there any decibel standards? It's impossible to be in the park; my head is starting to hurt. Turn down the volume; it's affecting the mental and moral state of visitors.
