The sculpture "Stargazer" in Mogilev is a unique work of art created by the Belarusian sculptor Vladimir Zhbanov. The monument is a figure of an astrologer sitting on a high massive chair and pointing his finger at the sky. Nearby there is a telescope that serves as a sundial hand at the same time. In the evening, a powerful searchlight turns on in the telescope, directing the light beam upwards.
The sculpture has become popular among tourists and locals who believe in the omens associated with it. One of them says that to fulfill a wish, you need to sit on a chair with your zodiac sign and ask for something important and intimate. There is also an opinion that touching a finger to a sculpture or its forehead helps to accumulate cosmic energy, which gives confidence and courage in new beginnings.
"Stargazer" is a vivid example of how art can unite people and give them hope for the fulfillment of desires.

A beautiful sculptural composition. It fits into the square in an original way. We were here in the evening, the sky is full of stars. It's fascinating. You can sit on a chair under your sign, make a wish. It will definitely come true.

An interesting place and a legend for it.
There is a legend that the sculptor, before starting his work, consulted with astrologers, who told one secret: with the correct arrangement of the sculptural composition, the stars can fulfill a person's desire. He must ask for something while sitting in an armchair with his zodiac sign, and at the same time the desire must be truly cherished and intimate.The second legend says that the sculpture is positioned in such a way that it condenses the energy of the cosmos, and to get good luck in your business and endeavors, just touch the sculpture with your left finger, or better yet, the forehead of a Stargazer.

Briefly about the main thing for the genre sculpture "Stargazer" in the city of glorious Mogilev for people living in different countries according to the scheme (clip)
"In the morning I smear a sandwich -
Immediately the thought: how are the people?
And the caviar does not go down your throat,
And the compote does not pour into your mouth!":
"... you just have to make a wish and rub his finger" (Yellowgun Expert of the city of level 13 on April 10).
The main thing is short for the leaders of the air defense in the glorious city of Mogilev:
"At night a searchlight shines into the sky from a telescope" (Roman Ostrovsky, an expert on the city of level 7 on August 15).
Afterword: "A stargazer is an astrologer, someone who reads the stars (or by the stars), and does not count, as many people think."..

A good place to relax and walk with the whole family, couples in love, and even alone. Nearby there is a variety of bars, cafes and restaurants, pharmacies, banks, shops and boutiques: souvenirs, clothes, shoes, confectionery, cinema, night club, etc.. In general, take a walk, go shopping along the way, sit on benches, listen to live music performed by musicians (genres for every taste), look at an exhibition of drawings by art school children. In general, walk to your delight🤗🤗🤗

Not far, not close, there is the great city of Mogilev, which stands on a mountain. And from that mountain there is a view of the valley of the great Dnieper. They say that at night the smartest stargazer tries to count down how many more years the city will stand, but every night he loses count.

Stargazer - we can say that the highlight of the pedestrian street of Mogilev. It is rightfully one of the main tourist attractions of the city. The whole area is a single ensemble and hides several features. Zodiac signs are located around the Stargazer, and the statue itself is a huge sundial. And of course you just have to make a wish and rub his finger.
