# Things to do in Mogilev: top sights and where to go

> Mogilev's centre is Glory Square with the white Town Hall and its clock tower above the Dnieper; pedestrian Leninskaya Street starts here, and St Stanislaus Cathedral and the red-brick Drama Theatre are a 5-minute walk away. St Nicholas Monastery is 15 minutes downhill towards the river, while the Three Holy Hierarchs Cathedral and the Maslennikov Art Museum sit at the far end of Leninskaya, a 20–25-minute walk. Keep the Buinichi Field memorial and the zoo next to it for a second day — 20 minutes by car or bus.
