In 2025, declared the Year of Improvement, Minsk continues to transform. One of the key events will be the opening of a new recreation area near the Slepian Water System, timed to coincide with Republic Day. This project promises to be a real gift for residents and guests of the Pervomaisky District, making walks along the water system even more pleasant and comfortable.
Pervomaisky District: the green heart of the capital
Pervomaisky District, often called the “eastern gateway” of Minsk, is famous for its greenery. Here, improvement projects aimed at raising the quality of life are actively being implemented. The head of the district administration, Vadim Perednya, notes that this year the focus is not only on parks but also on the creation of modern recreational areas that will surprise city dwellers.
The new recreation area at the Slepian Water System will be part of this large-scale program. Although project details are still being kept secret, it is already known that the changes will be impressive. The location, popular among locals, will acquire a new look, combining natural beauty with modern conveniences.
Ecology and innovation: solar panels in action
One of the features of the district’s improvement has been the use of eco-friendly technologies. For example, solar panels have already been successfully used to illuminate green zones and parks. This solution was first tested in
Sevastopol Park, and then extended to other areas, including the “Kazachny Krai” with Shugaevskoye Lake.
This approach not only reduces energy costs but also preserves the environment. Similar innovations are also planned for the new recreation area at the Slepian Water System, making it even more attractive to lovers of eco-friendly leisure.
Sevastopol Park, spread over 32 hectares, has already become a benchmark for improvement in the district. Here you will find everything for comfortable recreation: walking paths, playgrounds, sports zones, and even a replica of the Sevastopol lighthouse, illuminated by solar panels. The park is divided into zones for quiet relaxation and active entertainment, making it a versatile place for all ages.
The new area at the Slepian Water System will likely inherit this approach, offering a variety of leisure opportunities. District residents are eagerly awaiting the surprises the administration has in store for Republic Day.
Courtyards and youth: joint efforts
Improvement efforts in Pervomaisky District are not limited to large projects. Special attention is paid to courtyard areas: playgrounds are being updated and old structures removed. For example, at 17a Kedishko Street, a new play area appeared thanks to collaboration with local enterprises such as the Minsk watch factory “Luch.”
Student groups will also participate in the creation of new recreation areas, including the location at the Slepian Water System. This underscores the importance of youth contribution to the development of the district and the city as a whole.
What else awaits residents in 2025?
In addition to the opening of the area at the Slepian Water System for Republic Day, another recreation spot will appear on Akademika Kuprevicha Street. This gift will be timed to coincide with City Day. Both projects will be part of a strategy to turn Pervomaisky District into an even more comfortable and modern place to live.
Why visit the new recreation area?
The Slepian Water System has long attracted Minsk residents with its natural beauty. After improvement, it will become the ideal place for family walks, sports activities, and outdoor relaxation. Convenient location, modern technologies, and a focus on resident comfort—these are what will make this area special.
In 2025, Pervomaisky District will continue to amaze. The new recreation area at the Slepian Water System will become not just another location, but a symbol of care for city dwellers and the pursuit of harmony between nature and the city.
