A very atmospheric and unusual place where you can feel the spirit of bygone times. An interesting concept is a park filled with the history of vanished villages. A calm, slightly mystical atmosphere that makes you think about time and life. It would be good to add more information plates with the stories of villages in order to delve deeper into the past. I recommend it for lovers of unusual places and quiet walks.

Perhaps this is the strongest memorial dedicated to the Great Patriotic War, where I have ever been. The memorial was created in the 50s under the USSR. The memorial was created on the site of the burned village of Khatyn. There are 286 of them, burned to the ground along with the inhabitants. It's not even possible to read it. The memorial consists of several parts and recreates the village completely, only on the site of burned houses, there are chimneys of stoves, like candles of memory, and on them are plaques with the names of those living in this house and the age of the children. And when you read 2 goals, 4 years, 10 years.... Shock, a lump in my throat, tears flowing by themselves. How could grown men just drive all the children and women with the elderly into a barn and set fire to it????? What kind of hatred had to be in the hearts of people not to see the children of another nation like that. I do not want to write about politics and who was in the composition of these punishers, the past cannot be returned. But to all those who are looking for the truth in history and who have questions inside why this is happening now, come to the memorial, walk around, feel this pain. The central place in this memorial is occupied by the figure of a grandfather who carries the lifeless burnt body of his granddaughter in his arms. Miraculously, he survived as a witness to the hell that happened on earth. And how did the author of the sculpture manage to put unbearable pain, hope and faith in Victory into the eyes of this elder. Do not drive past, the memorial is located 5 km from the highway, between Polotsk and Vitebsk. There is a huge parking lot with free comfortable toilets. There is a museum and a cafe. The day off is Monday, the museum and cafe are closed, the memorial is open

The atmosphere is very strong. Makes you think. But overall, it's great that the renovation was done. Be sure to visit someone who hasn't been. I liked it, special thanks to the guide. She talked with her soul and emotions.
