Mir Castle Complex 13 by Alexxx Malev

Famed throughout history for its flourishing Roma and Jewish communities, this village is home to a notable castle compound.

Mir (meaning "world" and "peace"; but the name most likely originates from the name of the river the settlement is situated on) is an urban settlement in Karelicy raion, Hrodna Voblast, Belarus on the banks of Miranka River, about 85 kilometers southwest of the national capital, Minsk. Prior to 1939 the town was in Poland. Mir village was founded sometime prior to 1345. It is home to a late medieval castle, which made the town the target of many attacks over the centuries. Its attractions are Mir Castle Complex, St. Nicholas' Church, and Church of the Holy Trinity.

Everything went perfectly. The hotels were all excellent and I will definitely use the site again. It can be a nightmare choosing hotels and for those that don’t want to be tied down to a package holiday; it is ideal as well as considerably cheaper.

My husband and I absolutely enjoyed our trip to Europe, our only complaint is that it wasn't long enough. I feel that we just scratched the surface and there is so much more we want to see and do. We definitely will be planning another trip in the near future. RoutePerfect is an amazing tool, it took a lot stress off of my shoulders. RoutePerfect staff was awesome, I had to make a couple of changes and it was done promptly. I stayed in some really descent hotels at a reasonable price. I love the fact that I didn't have to work too hard looking for good hotels RoutePerfect made it so easy to choose where I wanted to stay within my price range and interests. It was our first trip to Europe and we didn't know what to expect. I am so thankful i came across RoutePerfect. I tell my friends and family about it. I recommend it to everyone who asks me about my trip.
