Photo of the Day for October 28, 2019

Scenes from the countryside around Krasnaje 2019 (III/III).

Краявіды ды вёскі пад Красным 2019 (III/III).

 

Old log cabin, Tatarshchyna near Krasnaje.

Running southwest from Maladzjechna is a series of villages which include the ethnonym Tatar.  This repeated ethnonym reflects the invitations by successive Grand Dukes of Lithuania to Tatars to settle in, and fight for, the Grand Duchy.
