If outcomes of roads are thought up for unloading of streets, then the area – for "unloading" and rest of people. One of them – Independence Square. Having taken a place of honor in the downtown, it collected around itself a set of sights: the most beautiful church of Minsk and the oldest university, government buildings and the biggest monument to Lenin in the former Soviet Union. The modern landscape was added by lawns of greens and fountains, cozy shops and glass domes of the three-storied shallow city – Shopping Center Stolitsa.

Privokzalnaya Square – the person of the city, the place of meetings and wires. As a human face, it grows old and changes from time and events.
