Vitebsk, like most other large cities in Belarus, was ravaged by World War II. Before the war Vitebsk was predominatly Jewish and there were over twenty synagogues. Today there are almost no jews left in Vitebsk. The city still has a few buildings that have not been fixed or demolished since World War II. Vitebsk has kept its small town feel, and can be a nice place to relax.
