The Palace of the Rumiancaŭ and the Paskievič in Gomel is a must-visit attraction, offering visitors a glimpse into its historical significance and beautifully restored interiors. The palace, built by Field Marshal Piotr Rumyantsev in the late 18th century, stands as a link to Russia's imperial past. Visitors can enjoy guided tours, explore the museum with its collection of antiques and paintings, climb the bell tower for exhibitions, and stroll through the picturesque park with ancient trees and swan lake. While some reviewers noted missing art pieces from WWII and suggested improvements in pricing policies for sightseeing spots on the palace grounds, overall it remains a highly recommended destination for those seeking history, culture, and natural beauty.

The palace itself links this small city to the Great Imperial Russian time-line and was built by the same architects who has built in Russian capitals. Very few house items preserved, but you can feel the spirit.
One of the great park in Gomel . Had very nice walk though it was getting wet due to slight rain and cold . Our friend Ivan explained the history of the Palace.
