One more sight...

And this is Belarusian KGB building. The main office. The one were i was inside when they arrested me. Inside of the building is the dramatically famous KGB prison where they had put and still do political prisoners. Nowadays until the court proceedings. So, when i saw where we went, i was sure it will be a prison for me. But fortunately i was wrong and didn't experience that kind of stuff. :)



And this statue is just in front of the KGB building. Of Felix Dzerzhinsky - the founder of the secret service in the USSR. Let's say Grandpa of the KGB. Newly introduced Belarusian agents give their solemn promises to serve the country and the president at the base of the Felix's house. A kind of continuity of tradition :) Btw, that parc zone behind the statue has been always a nice place. :)

  1. It looks the same as KGB building in St. Pete! Igor even showed to me channels that took blood out of prison to the river Neva! is there river near buy of this place?
    btw - building looks nice despite bad memories about it ... our building of prison is the ugliest building you can imagine!
