The wife and I have just done a month driving around Belarus in a foreign number plated car. Border crossing from Poland ( Ok took 8 hours ) but no problems what so ever. Everyone was so friendly. The cleanest and safest country we have ever been to. ( on country 57 ) Was not stopped at any time by any police whilst driving around. Beautiful country ! Highly recommend 😀

As a Russian having lived half of my life in The States I'd have to say that it was a lot easier for me to learn English than it usually would be for a Westerner to learn Russian. For me it meant going from complexity to simplicity and for an English speaker it would be the other way around. Vocabulary would probably be the easiest part, then comes the grammar - alot tougher....and then you meet conjugation. At this point if you thinking about jumping out the window let me just comfort you by saying that you're not alone. Greetings from St.Petersburg!

I have booked a trip to BY now on Friday. I will fly from Istanbul on 30 days visa free visit. I am swedish citizen. I will be totally honest and please give me serious answer only. My intuition is strong, it says that it's not so smart to enter BY now. Considering that Sweden probabpy will join Nato next month. I am alone traveler and male. Last thing I want is to be arrested for no reason. I read both media, info from government and channels like these ones. It's so difficult to now what to do. "It's fine, media tells propaganda, come to Belarus it's safe, don't be afraid" are not good enough answers. I need to know clearly what can and has happened to foreigns, how does checkpoints at border work? How high is a risk to be controlled by police and so? These are serious things. But stil so difficult to find any info about.

well, i can tell only from my perspective of a belarussian citizen. but as far as i know you'll be allright if you'll not do anything stupid and break the law. read carefully what can you take with you to Belarus (as far as i know only drugs, guns and nifes are strictly forbidden). and you'll be fine. our media lover stories about foreign provocators, but i haven't heard anything like this for a long-long time. it should be safe for you to travel to Belarus, if you aren't hardcore Ukraine or west supporter and you'll not do any political staff. from other sides it is very safe here, and locals will be happy to meet you.

I feel safer walking on the streets in Belarus than here in the US. I highly doubt I'll be robbed walking down the street, clean with no trash or bums and crackheads roaming the parks and streets. Myself and my fiancee walked the park in Mogilev near the dnipro river at night, almost 23:00. Families waking, clean, well lit, and safe. I even played an airsoft game at a stand that was open. People were renting scooters and riding having fun. I suggest people to visit and see for themselves.

as a resident of Mogilev, I can advise you to stay at the Atrium Hotel. Not expensive, comfortable hotel. The best in the city. Plus, you can stay in the spa area all day without a time limit. And if you get bored, you can, for example, go bowling at the Mainland shopping center. Or visit a nice Monument to the policemen who died during the defense of Mogilev in 1941. Have a nice holiday in our city 👍

Now, I am from Spain, you can enter with no visa only entrying from Minsk airport and up to 30 days, the difference is there no direct flights, but you can go there through Istambul (Turkey), and then from Turkey to Minsk. Also you can go to Moscow, and then from Moscow to Minsk (be aware you need in this case visa for Russia!), and if have problem to go to Belarus? Since you don't protest of whatever, you have no problems and follow Belarusian rules stricly. I would like to visit again and visit Grodno, Gomel, Moguilev, Orsha... and ... what Irish Partizan suggest me! :) пока ! Greetings from Spain
