Serving as both the capital of Belarus and the headquarters of the Commonwealth of Independent States, Minsk is a hub of business and government. Although few older buildings survived WWII bombings and Stalinist construction projects, Belarusians are proud of their capital's long history and its continued cultural importance. The city boasts 16 museums, 11 theaters, and 139 libraries, including the National Library of Belarus, with collections housed in a towering glass geometric ball.

We booked our tickets the previous day because that evening's performance was sold out. The ticket office is on the same side of the water fountain. Push the door as it's not easy to see it's open. English wasn't spoken but it was easy to understand with context - we were there to buy tickets to a performance. We watch Rigoletto in Italian with Russian Subtitles. But read the synopsis of whichever Opera you see first and you'll be fine. Gorgeous inside the theatre. Definitely, recommend attending a performance! You don't have to dress up for the event as it's very accessible, but it's nice to make a little bit of an effort.

Had a fine time there, it's a beautiful theatre with a charming snack cafe and an historic interior. Lots of marble!
