The landmark of the city of Polotsk.A place worth seeing, I advise you to visit the stone. It is located on a mountain with a beautiful view in a historical place. The stone depicts history.
A notable landmark of the ancient city of Polotsk. It is located near St. Sophia Cathedral. The size amazes even sophisticated tourists. And the whole story will be thoroughly told by the Internet or a guide.
I was here once...
first of all, I liked the gorgeous view from this place.
Secondly, I can say that I touched the history of Belarus with my hands, that is, one of the four famous Boris stones.
I didn't quite understand the meaning of this object. A healthy boulder in 1982, dragged up a hill for something. It's true that there was a lot of free time in the USSR. The view of the river is beautiful. and everything..... In general, if you are bored, you can stretch your legs., or drink champagne with a beautiful view, it is possible. There is not a bad cafe nearby.
If you move a little away from the stone, you can clearly see the drawing. If you are in Polotsk, then St. Sophia Cathedral is impossible not to see, and there is a stone nearby. And it is impossible not to visit Polotsk!
The area is very beautiful.Magnificent nature and clean air.Everything is beautifully decorated, I do not regret that I drove more than 300 km for this.-It's worth it And Polotsk is the most beautiful with its historical origins, it cannot be compared with anyone and nothing.
The view from the stone is stunning. If you want legends and a little more history, then this is not on the wall next to it. There is a free audio system, you can download it using the code in the cathedral
An amazing historical place! Definitely worth a visit in Polotsk! Nearby is the majestic St. Sophia Cathedral, the most picturesque coast. Borisov stone is impressive! A monumental thing!
In general, there were higher expectations from Polotsk than there are, one of the oldest cities in Belarus, but no.
I don't know much about history, but I assume that the city suffered greatly during the war or was rebuilt sometime later.
Clean, green, beautiful river, it's worth a walk.
The stone stands on Castle hill, next to St. Sophia Cathedral. The inscription on the stone is almost invisible, but there is an information plaque nearby where you can read information about this stone. They say there were six Borisov stones. The guide said that if you make a wish at the stone, it will come true.
A large boulder with an embossed cross. There is a legend about these stones. Well, for those who believe, it is necessary to make a wish))) walking around the stone three times...They say it comes true 100%!
In the heart of historical Polotsk, next to St. Sophia Cathedral. You can't pass it by. And a historical monument, and a natural one, and epigraphy, and a shrine (for many). Anyway, it is interesting for everyone.
One of the few attractions of Polotsk with a history. The Stone and St. Sophia Cathedral are mandatory places to visit and explore the city. The entrance is convenient, there is a large Parking lot downstairs. There is a guided tour and organ music in the cathedral. I recommend it to both guests and residents, if they are not familiar with the history so much that they could take themselves through the Sofia dungeon and tell something intelligible
There is a legend that it was taken from the bottom of the river. And by order of Prince Boris, there were several such stones that read "Lord Jesus Christ Nick help Slave Boris"
The stone is next to the St. Sophia Cathedral of Polotsk. Beautiful view of the Western Dvina River. Nearby there is a descent to the river and a spring (John the Baptist spring) with the purest water.
The stone offers a beautiful view of the Sophia Temple and the river. And the stone itself is made in the good traditions of antiquity, although it belongs to recent times. The images on the stone tell the story of Polotsk. It is interesting.
