Ilya from Minsk

Hi! My name is Ilya. I'm a freelance copywriter and, partly, a digital marketer. I'm passionate about content creation and media. Me and my friends run our own podcast. Mostly just about life, without any specific theme :). Plus, of course, I enjoy writing. And, sometimes, photography.

Accidental Point Minsk

Music store and artist spot

""Accidental Point" in Minsk is a place dreamed up by a community of musicians. When it's not Saturday night, it's mostly quiet, calm and dreamy..."

Accidental Point is a place made by a Minsk community of musicians named "accidental society". They are constantly performing on different events, but have also dreamed their own place, where they can play the music they love.

So, they made this spot. In the beginning, it was more like a traditional bar, but right now it has evolved into a community of music lovers. Some events are held on the spot almost every day. Here you can listen to some piano concert with rare 20th-century music or get to know some local electronic scene artists - there are no boundaries for specific music genres here.

Also, you can attend movie nights - they are also pretty common here. Of course, the movie is usually some 1979 low-budget documentary or a late-soviet psychedelic cartoon (i'm not joking, I literally just checked their Instagram page).

If you are into that kind of experience - this is the spot I really recommend visiting!

Minsk Observatory

A bit of cosmic romance

Minsk observatory (the only public one in Belarus) is by far my favourite place to spend a sleepless night out. A perfect alternative to bar hopping!
