Not far from the railway station in Minsk, at the intersection of Sverdlova and Kirov streets, there is one of the popular recreation places for Minsk residents - Mikhailovsky Square. The park has gained particular attractiveness thanks to the landscape gardening sculptural compositions of Vladimir Zhbanov, who decorated Minsk with his original works.
The sculptures by Vladimir Zhbanov evoke sincere sympathy among the citizens of Minsk. There are a number of popular beliefs associated with them. For example, they say that if a lonely guy sits on a bench next to the sculpture of the mysterious "Stranger" and holds her hand for several minutes, he will soon find a girlfriend.
Anyone who comes to Minsk or while passing the time at the railway station can walk through this small park, get acquainted with its unusual heroes and try to become happy and successful with their help.
