What Is There To See In Cuba
If you are looking for information on where to go and what to do in Cuba this might be a good place to start. This charming Caribbean Island certainly has everything you need for fantastic holidays to Cuba and there are options to please the most discerning traveler.
Cuba, being the largest of the Caribbean Island it is favourite over other Caribbean destinations. The fact is that there is so much to do and see that even 2 week holidays are not enough to get to know the Island.
Lets look at places like Varadero, Jibacoa, Guardalavaca, cayo Coco, Cayo Largo, Cayo Santa Maria and so many other beach destinations with white sandy beaches and turquoise color waters. To chose among all of them could be a difficult task. Some places like Varadero are better in terms of infrastructure and things you can do out side your hotel while the rest are more for the purpose of pure relaxation.
Pinar del Rio province has the most attractive landscapes in Cuba especially those of Vinales Valley where the best tobacco of the world is harvested every year. Soroa and last Terrazas also in Pinar del Rio are especially attractive among those interested in hiking, tracking and bird watching.
Trinidad de Cuba one of the most charming colonial villages in Cuba which dates back from the 17th Century. Today Trinidad is considered a World Heritage Site definitely worth visiting.
Havana without a doubt should not be left out in your visit. This city represents the main interaction with the Cuban culture. Havana?s Old Town is one of its best assets. You can find life music almost in every corner and every square.
For history lovers and those wanting to get to know the real Caribbean culture there is no better place than Santiago the Cuba. With a very rich cultural heritage Santiago de Cuba is the best place to enjoy a Cuban Carnival which takes place around the 26th of July every year.
Cuba has accumulated in the last 4 centuries a wealth of history and character. Especially in the last 50 years after the triumph of Castro's revolution in 1959. Some consider it all might change soon so my advice is to start planning your holidays sooner rather than later.
