Willow labyrinth, swings and sun loungers. What new recreation areas will be arranged in Frunzensky district
Two new recreation areas will be arranged in Frunzensky district in 2026. Where exactly and how the territories will change, writes "Minsk-News".

Transition Square
According to Alena Kmit, Deputy Director of "Zelenbud of Frunzensky District," a recreation area "Verba" (Willow) will be equipped in the green area along P. Hlebki Street. The opening is planned for Independence Day. A full-fledged square with a network of paths will be formed here. Old pedestrian connections will be preserved, and secondary paths will be laid in places where it will be convenient for people to walk.
The main landscape feature will be live hedges made of willows, as well as a willow labyrinth. In addition, bushes and trees will be planted.

The space will be divided into functional zones. A children's playground and a workout area will be integrated into the natural environment. For peaceful relaxation, picnic spots and quiet corners will be created. A sports ground, bicycle parking, and a navigation system have also been included. Small architectural forms — benches, fences, litter bins — will be made from natural materials so that they do not contrast with the green environment.







— The entrance group will be designed in a single style. After the opening, the area on P. Hlebki Street will turn into a place where one can play, exercise, or simply relax in the fresh air, — says Kmit. — "Verba" is a transition square: a space between winter and spring, city and nature, the rational and the sacred.
Bird's Corner
By City Day, within the streets Akademika Vyshalieskaha — Brykieta — Prytytskaha, the improvement of the "Kachyny Vostraŭ" (Duck Island) recreation area will be completed. The square already delights residents with its picturesque relief: there is a small pond, gentle slopes to the water, and dense greenery that protects from road noise.

A circular walking route will be created around the pond, uniting the main functional zones. Observation decks and photo zones are planned on the island and peninsula, allowing people to observe birds without disturbing their peace. Decks and piers will appear, as well as small areas with sun loungers and swings, a "duck beach" with sand covering and canopies. Also, duck houses, birdhouses, and squirrel feeders will be made.

The square's structure will be complemented by a children's play area in a natural style, a workout playground, benches, and a modern separate waste collection system.
Stands with information about the inhabitants of the pond and rules for careful treatment of nature will appear.
— We want to create a quiet place where residents can enjoy walks, admire nature, and spend time with family and children. This will be a multifunctional public space that combines recreation and ecological education. The main focus is the harmony of water, greenery, and fauna, — Kmit explains.
