What should I visit in your country?

Hey everyone! I'm a Software Engineer and I love to travel. For the last year I mostly traveled around my own country. I live in Belarus for all my life and I've visited all the major cities and I'd love to share some of my thoughts about what I'd recommend to visit.

In my opinion, the most beautiful city of my country is Hrodna, even though it's not the capital. It's so nice city, with cool old streets and amazing scenery. This city have a biggest shopping mall of the entire country. Right! Even the capital doesn't have something like this.

The next city will be a Brest and it's small city, but I feel pretty comfortable to be there from time to time, it has Fortress.

In the capital of the Belarus, Minsk, I think I've been to a lot of places, but the only place I love a lot is Lavka. It's a place where a lot of Car meets happen and as I love cars, it's so cool place for me.

Tell me something about your country and what should I visit?

P.S. Next month I'm moving to Poland and I'm going to learn this country as well 😍

I'm currently in my home town of Halifax, Nova Scotia, and currently sitting in this building:

HFX library

If you're in to architecture like that, it will be of interest!

But a public library isn't that interesting.

Halifax has a lot of ocean-front beauty

Peggy's cove

peggy's cove

But mostly a lot of really nice people!

I don't live here full time any more, but being home definitely has me entertaining the idea of coming home πŸ˜†

Wow... It's beautiful. Usually I see these building in "Future Concept" of something like this πŸ˜‚ I don't think we have something like this in our country. And that red house remember me the fishing houses in Norway, I hope I'll visit Norway some day as well. Don't know a lot about the Canada, but I see that it's amazing and I think I might want to watch some video about this place. Thanks for sharing πŸ‘

Oh Spain is so huge and beautiful so I'm gonna narrow it to Galicia that is the autonomous community I live in:

  • Playa das Catedrais
    Catedrais beach photo

  • Cies Island: Is a natural park and it is protected so, they limit how many people can go daily, and have one of the most beautiful beaches on the world: Playa de Rodas
    Cies island, rodas beach

  • Costa da Morte (Death coast) and Finisterra: Histories says that more than 140 shipwrecks have happened along Costa da Morte but this rocky area full of cliffs is soooo beautiful. It is full of lighthouses, small towns, surrounded by beaches and a lot of history. And Finisterra is called that way because of the Romans. Thing is that, when your are standing in the Finisterra lighthouse and see to sea all your eye can caught is water, so they thought that this was the end of the world, that there was nothing else beyond those waters

Hola Silvia! Como estas? πŸ˜‚ I've been learning Spanish in my childhood at school, but now I'm upset I didn't learn it, but at least I know how to read and pronounce. Spain is great and on my list of countries that I want to visit. My friend from Spain invited me, so I'll be happy to visit not only him, but places you've suggested as well. Muchas gracias amiga ❀️

Germany here. I would say bakeries. Everybody talks about beer, sausages and cars. But i think our bread is quite nice.

I’d love to visit Germany, especially Nurburgring 😍 Because I’m so into cars. And I think I’m going to so this year, as it’s so easy to visit your country from Poland. I promise, I’ll try bakeries β™₯️ Haven’t heard about sausages but now I’m going to learn more about Germany πŸ˜‚ Thanks for letting me know

I think the bavarian "White sausages" and i see them mentioned a lot. I don't like them at all. Beer is pretty okay, but before ten years ago you only had a handful different flavors, which got a little boring.

NΓΌrburgring is fun. Been there in the 90ies. At certain days you could try the Race Track with your normal car. My Dad droves us through with the familiy car and had great time.πŸ˜…

I'm so glad you've shared information like that 😍 It's so nice to hear something from people who live in the country you wish to visit. So, it seems like I'm going to try white sausages this year πŸ˜‚

I know I can drive with normal car but I feel that for the first few times I'm going to drive just really slow or at least with the instructor. Because if you miss a turn it's going to be cost a lot πŸ˜‚

Berlin in German is visited βœ… I'm still dreaming about Nurburging, but maybe next time. Haven't tried any local food, because I was trying to see more places, as I had only 1.5 day. Pretty cool architecture, but a lot of garbage as well. I was really confuse by the metro, but at the end of my trip it was more easier to get to the needed station πŸ˜†

I live in Australia. Visit the Great Barrier Reef before it gets too destroyed.

Other than that, beaches. I've travelled a fair bit and Australia has the best beaches, hands down.

I've heard about beaches in Australia and I'd be happy to visit this place as well. I've never heard about Great Barrier Reef and now I see the picture, it's so amazing place. I hope I didn't miss the chance to visit this. Thanks for sharing something about your country, now I know a little bit more 😍

The beaches in Kenya are pretty awesome. The wildlife game reserves and national parks are also amazing. Then there's the cultural centers. Kenya as a whole is pretty amazing.

They're amazing 😍 I think national park should be really interesting, especially for me, because you have a lot of animals I will never see in my country πŸ˜„

Really inspiring thank you so much, I got really inspired and decided to create a country's capital finder just displaying the capital of any country in python and run on Flask maybe this would help you find any capital you want :)
