Pinar Del Ro: The Most Western Province Of Cuba Waits For You

Not many locations in Cuba display as much natural magnificence as Pinar del Rio. Set apart by the nature, this region hosts two of the six World Reservations of the Biosphere in the Cuba.

The fascination of its flora and fauna represents the primary beauty of the county, and no doubt about it is the territory of the finest tobacco in the world. For those who want to be in direct contact with nature, Pinar del Rio is a must see place. Very close to the city and on route to the Viales Valley, the Aguas Claras Villa stands out for is its characteristic features and it is built in the lands previously occupied by a stunning property in the tropical landscape.

Near to the city and in traffic to the Viales Valley, the Aguas Claras Villa stands out for its distinctive features and it is lifted in the lands of an old and beautiful property in the tropical countryside.

But not only is this area being blessed by nature it is also the cradle of so many Cuban artist. Famous poets, song writers and singers and painters have been born and raised in this territory. Among the most famous are XIX novelist Cirilo Villaverde and painter Pedro Plablo Oliva.

The most frequent party in the area is the guateque, rural celebration that is always carried out around a typical Cuban meal: pig roasted in spike, congr, plantain tostones, yucca with dressing and other vegetables and also with drinks as the Guayabita del Pinar, a typical delicious rum produced in the area.

If you want to visit Pinar del Rio in your holidays in Cuba, you can fly to Havana and then take a transfer to this area. It is located at about 160 kms far from Havana and it takes about 2 hours by road. There are no international or domestic airports in this province so flying directly is not an option. There is although the chance to arrive by boat to the Marinas located in Cayo Levisa and Maria La Gorda.

The most well-known and I would also state most attractive part of Pinar del Rio is Viales Valley. This location has the most wonderful mountain ranges and most picturesque valleys in Cuba. There is not much in terms of accommodation facilities in the vicinity just for not to damage the natural environment. To mention the best I have to include Los Jasmines Hotel, La Ermita and Rancho San Vicente Cottages.

I will always recommend a visit to Pinar del Rio province, especially if you are the kind of tourist that likes to get to know the real country. I would say that including in your holidays to Cuba a stay in this territory will definitely be the high light of your holiday experience in Cuba.
