Imagine you are in another city and you are lost. Follow the directions and find the places you need.
Well done!
I’m a huge fortress, once a royal place,
In the capital, I guard with a strong embrace.
My walls are thick, and I hold the key,
What am I called? Come and see!
I’m a beautiful park with trees so tall,
Bison roam freely, and nature’s a call.
A UNESCO site, I’m a treasure so rare,
What am I named? Do you dare?
I’m a castle that looks like a fairy tale,
With red bricks and towers, I’ll never pale.
In a small town, I stand proud and tall,
What am I? Can you recall?
I’m a special place, where memories stay,
A tribute to heroes, who showed us the way.
With a beautiful monument made of stone,
I honor the soldiers who are never alone.
In the heart of the city, on a river so clear,
What landmark am I? Can you come near?
The Brest Hero-Fortress
Belovezhskaya Pushcha National Park
Mir Castle
The Island of Tears
