A city-wide clean-up event was held in Vitebsk
Chairman of the Vitebsk Regional Executive Committee Alexander Subbotin took part in a city-wide clean-up event held in Vitebsk.
The main goal of the event is the improvement and tidying up of the regional center's territory, where the XI Forum of Regions of Belarus and Russia will be held next week, followed by the celebration of the city's 1050th anniversary, and then the International Festival of Arts "Slavianski Bazaar in Vitebsk".
The head of the region worked at one of the sites that will be used for these significant events for the Vitebsk region – the "Vitebsk" hotel. The final touches are currently being made here before the arrival of numerous guests.
– The large-scale transformation of the regional center is linked to the forum of regions, the international festival, and the anniversary of Vitebsk. For the residents, the main celebration is City Day, its 1050th anniversary, and the 80th anniversary of liberation. As a Vitebsk resident, I also decided to take part in preparing my hometown for the holiday, – noted Alexander Subbotin.
The head of the region, along with the Chairman of the Vitebsk City Executive Committee Gennady Sabyinich and heads of administrations, planted decorative maple trees and mountain pines, which adorned the area near the hotel. It has noticeably transformed after a major reconstruction. While preserving its recognizable architectural appearance, its "interior" has been completely updated and now meets modern standards and requirements.
As a result of the reconstruction, the parking lot has been expanded, including for tourist transport, an original canopy has been installed at the building's unloading zone, and the guest reception and registration area has been updated.
The rooms have become more comfortable, with the addition of suites featuring a small kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom.
A sports complex with exercise equipment, a billiards room, and a relaxation room is located on the third floor. The conference hall and cafe have also been changed. Alexander Subbotin inspected the hotel and expressed confidence that guests of Vitebsk will like it.
By the way, the reconstruction is planned to continue after the forum and festival. The second phase involves equipping a SPA salon on the basement floor. There are other interesting ideas as well.
