> divided village in two. Now are two villages: Tokary (PL) and Takary
> (BY).
> In Tokary main road goes directly east through the village and suddenly
> turns right. From this palce pavement road towards to the border. 200 m
> further is barbed wire and two border marks: polish and byelorussian.
> There's no border crossing. People, who want travel from Tokary to Takary
> must go to nearest border crossing in Polowce (about 20 km oneway). More
