Yakub Kolas Square

Yakub Kolas square is located at the place of the historical village Kamarouka, which in turn gave name to the nearby Kamarou Flee Market.

In 1956 the square was named in honour of the folk poet and one of the founders of the classic Belarusian literature - Yakub Kolas.

Lush greenery and fountains make this square an attractive landmark on a hot summer day for nearby workers, shoppers and city tourists.

The National Philharmonic is located to the south of the square and surrounded with dwellings, department store "TSUM" and supermarket "Stolichny".

The architects succeeded to make it a convenient City center for residents, workers, shoppers, tourists and art lovers.
