Unfortunately, the excursion to Khatyn disappointed me very much. I'll start with a good one. Huge Parking, toilets, cafes, attentive and cute girls in the administration, the museum is elegantly decorated, the huge territory of the complex makes an impression, but that's it. You will not find the phone number and opening hours of the museum on the Internet, the complex is open from 10 to 17, Monday is a day off - a friend who was there a week earlier sent me. The administration said that there are no available guides, but we can join the bus. Since there were many of us who wanted to join, we were given a guide. That's the end of the positive emotions!!! A young man, his name was Peter, conducted a tour of the museum without arousing any feelings other than indignation at the distortion of historical facts! After leaving the museum, I had to explain to the child that the land in Belarus was liberated from fascists by 1, 2.3 Belarusian Front and 1 Baltic Front with the help of Belarusian partisans, and not Belarusians themselves, heroically liberated their land from fascist invaders. On the street, on the territory of the complex, another surprise was waiting, Belarusians, it turns out, have won their independence!!!! I did not receive it due to the collapse of the USSR in 1991, but they won it!!! Well, he was finally finished off by saying that he CURSES those who only see the numbers stamped on the wall!!!! Very professional!!! It is a pity that so many non-professional guides work in such a place, it would be wonderful if Peter was explained that the name of the front was given in the direction, and not by the nationality of the fighters, and it would also be good to tighten up the modern history. I hope you have better luck with the guide.

The renovated museum. I went with my family. It is very informative and interesting, especially for the younger generation. The price is acceptable. It is better to have a guide. The time for everything is 2 hours maximum. There are clean toilets. There is a place to eat and buy souvenirs. I recommend.

A museum to visit and bring the children. The story is known. But it must be remembered. I recommend taking a guided tour. But! A lot depends on him. I've been there twice in two years. The first time, I was very lucky to have a guide. Goosebumps. The second one was probably an intern. I know and tell it better myself. Nevertheless, I recommend taking a guided tour. Go first through the territory with the story, then to the museum inside.
