Also, there are two versions of the Belarusian flag - the official one is red-green flag (also jokingly known as "dusk over a swamp"), whereas the one used by the opposition is a three-striped white-red-white flag. For your own safety, it is not advised to demonstrate it in public.

Belarus is neither in the European Union nor in the Schengen Common Travel Area, and most non-CIS nationals would require a visa to enter the country.
Please note that while there is no border control between Belarus and Russia if you are travelling by train, Belarusian transit visa is still required if you are transiting through the country going from Russia to Poland or vice versa.
