Did You Know?

A City Rebuilt From Almost Nothing

Minsk lost around 80% of its buildings in the Second World War, and Belarus lost roughly a quarter of its entire population. The city was rebuilt as a Stalinist showpiece, which is why its central avenue is 15 kilometres of uniform neoclassical frontage.

The clock: Minsk keeps UTC+3 year-round, an hour ahead of Warsaw. Belarus abolished seasonal clock changes in 2011.
