Viñales Valley, Cuba



Can't face bus-ing it back to Havana so fly back instead and catch a bus to Viñales, a sleepy town in the province of Pinar del Rio in the west.

The Viñales Valley has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since November 1999 to protect the unique karst landscape. As soon as I arrive I begin to relax. Life moves at a slow pace in the Cuban countryside and the locals take advantage by kicking back in their front-porch rocking chairs and watching the world go by.
