Here is the handy snippet to get the view block programmatically in twig by preprocessing the respective theme/module hook function along with an example.

mythemename.theme

<?php
use Drupal\views\Views;
function themename_preprocess_node(&$variables) {
    $variables['variable_name'] = views_embed_view('view_name', 'block_name');
}

example-node.html.twig

<div>{{ variable_name }}</div>

mythemename.theme

<?php
use Drupal\views\Views;
function themename_or_modulename_preprocess_respective_hook_name(array &$variables) {    
  $content['array_name'] = [
  '#type' => 'view',
  '#name' => 'view_name',
  '#display_id' => 'block_display_name',
];
$variables['your_variable_name'] = $content;
}
//example
//  $content['ourTeam'] = [
//  '#type' => 'view',
//  '#name' => 'our_team',
//  '#display_id' => 'block_1',
//];
//$variables['team'] = $content;
//another method

block--book-myblock.html.twig

{{ your_variable_name }} 
{# this will print the entire view along with its settings #}

example.html.twig

{# we can also render view block programatically with twig tweek module, for that we need to download the module form drupal.org and then write the below code in your twig file directly #}
{{ drupal_view('view_name', 'display_name') }}
{# example #}
{{ drupal_view('our_team', 'block_1') }}
