Открывая Беларусь: экскурсия слушателей ФМС в сердце народной культуры

On September 24, foreign students from the preparatory department and Russian language courses of the International Cooperation Faculty at BNTU. Visited the Museum of Folk Architecture and Rural Life in Ozertsy. This trip provided students not only with the opportunity to immerse themselves in the culture and traditions of Belarus but also with a unique experience that enhances their language skills.

During the visit, students learned about the architectural features of traditional Belarusian houses, explored the lifestyle and customs of local residents throughout different historical periods.

Particular attention was given to traditional crafts and folk trades represented in the museum. The students were able to see how products made from clay, fabric, and wood were created.

The visit to the museum became an important part of the educational program, promoting cultural exchange and deepening the knowledge about the country where they study. The students noted that such activities help them not only to better understand the culture but also to establish new friendships and friendly relationships with their fellow group members.
