Brest Region

Brest Region combines lowland calm with borderland energy in a way that reflects its position between Poland and Ukraine in south-western Belarus. The Western Bug and Pripyat river basins shape a largely flat land of meadows, woodland and wetlands. Part of Belovezhskaya Pushcha, the ancient forest shared with Poland, lies within the region and is closely associated with the European bison. Its main city, Brest, is home to Brest Fortress, a 19th-century defensive complex that became a powerful symbol of Soviet resistance during the German invasion of 1941.
