The Tower of Kamenets is one of the main symbols of Brest Region. It is a 30-meter high tower, built in the late 13th century on the hill near the Lesnaya River. This tower is one of the oldest stone structures in Belarus. Once towers like that were built in Brest, Grodno, Turov and Novogrudok, but they were destroyed in wars.

The Tower is often called "Belaya Vezha", which is a historical mistake. It has been brick-red through the ages and was painted white just once in 1950.

Transfiguration Church (Спасо-Преображенская церковь / Спаса-Праабражэнская царква) of the St Euphrosine monastery is a great monument of ancient Polotsk school architecture. The monastery was founded by St Euphrosine in 1125. After the 1447 fire, the small church was rebuilt into a five-tower fortress-type church.

Nowadays historians have discovered over a thousand square meters of unique 12th-century artworks in the Church.

The large Gomel Palace and park ensemble consist of many historical monuments. There is a classical 18th-century palace, cathedral, winter garden, watchtower, and the 19th-century park. The lands of the palace with English-style park stretch for 800 meters along the right bank of the Sozh River. Throughout its history the palace was repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt. It housed a telephone station, a library, a puppet theatre, a youth center, and a museum.

Today the Gomel Palace collection is one of the richest in Belarus. It consists of unique objects, original paintings, sculptures, handwritten books, icons and monuments.

The Mir Castle was built in the early 16th century near the village of Mir and was surrounded by a flat plain, which helped to see the enemy army from afar. A small Miranka river nearby could stop a sudden attack. At first, it was a small square fort with four towers at the corners, and the fifth – on the gate. In the late 16th century Nicholas Radziwill turned it into a palace and a beautiful park was set up around it. Today the Mir Castle is on UNESCO World Heritage List.

500 years ago the Radziwill family had large areas of lands on the territory of modern Belarus. In 1580 Radziwill Sirotka ordered to build a new castle as great as the name of the Radziwill family. Nesvizh Palace was founded on a hill on the right bank of the Usha river. Surrounded with water the castle was in fact an island as the only road to it was through a long wooden bridge.

Today the great palace with a large landscape park is on UNESCO World Heritage List.

In 1994, a Belarusian artist Pavel Maslenikov gave 125 works of art to the city of Mogilev. This amazing present started the Mogilev Regional Art Museum collection. The Museum is housed in the building of the architectural monument of the early 20th century. Before the Museum was founded, the farmers' land bank was located in the building.

Today the Museum is well known for its great collection of the 17th-19th centuries' works of art.

The National Library of Belarus is the main information and cultural centre of the country. More than 2,000 people visit the library every day. The new 72-metre high building was built in 2006 in a park on a river bank. The building looks like a gigantic diamond.

The Library also serves as a museum of rare books, for example original books by Francysk Skaryna, a great man in the Belarusian history. His sculpture is placed next to the library building.

Tourists may also enjoy the breathtaking views of Minsk from the viewing platform on the roof.
