I’m off for an all day tour out-of-town to Mir and Nesvizh, two small towns home to “impossibly romantic 16th-century castles, which are considered to be pearls of Belarusian architecture. They were once owned by the powerful Radziwill magnate family. The castles are under UNESCO protection for their unique style and history, and are considered world heritage sites.”
Nevizh Palace is on a small island and here we’re walking along a causeway leading to the castle.
