03 Valle de Viñales

The Valle de Viñales is on the western end of the country and is a great way to get a feel for various aspects of Cuban life. Visit the main street where local artisans sell traditional Cuban street food then wander around the side streets to the hills and valleys beyond. One of the most interesting places to visit is the tobacco plantation where you can see how genuine Cuban cigars are made. This is a great place to take a scenic bike ride and there are some bike tours that travel here as well.
