Christmas in Cuba: celebrate a party that was banned

We may think that Christmas holidays are currently unrelated to the religious holiday, however, we would be wrong. Elements such as stars, found in many decorations, angels or shepherds are closely related to the birth of the child Jesus. Therefore, it is normal that in many non-Christian countries the Christmas party is not celebrated, since for them on December 25 does not mean a relevant celebration in their calendars. However, there are also some countries which had celebrated the Christmas holiday, perhaps due to the colonization and immersion of religious beliefs in this area, but that over the years has been losing tradition.

How do Cubans Celebrate the Valentine's Day?

The bride and groom, according to their economic possibilities, give each other cards or any other kind of entertainment to celebrate and celebrate that day. They also do it and exchange messages, friendships and friends. Many even give an engagement ring to their partner.

Cuban tobacco, nature and tradition

Cigar fans often agree that the best tobacco in the world comes from the Vuelta Abajo region of the province of Pinar del Río. The reddish earth is full of nutrients and the weather is perfect for growing tobacco. The Finca El Pinar Robaina is 40 acres (16 hectares), and is privately owned by Alejandro Robaina. The same family has cultivated the land since 1845, with its tobacco being used as one of the best Cuban cigars. Alejandro has a legend in the world of cigars, the Cuban government even named a brand of cigars on his behalf. Currently, the farm's ambassador is Hiroshi Robaina, Alejandro's grandson.

Outstanding Universal Value

Founded about 1519 on Cuba’s north-western shore, Old Havana has maintained a remarkable unity of character through its adherence to its original urban layout. Urban pl

Valle de los Ingenios and Playa Ancón, two emblematic places of Trinidad

Trinidad is much more than its museums, restaurants and colonial mansions. Not far from the city is the Valle de los Ingenios, with an extension of more than 250 square k

Cars in Cuba, a return to the past

You are in Havana and the impulse takes you to travel it in a short time, before focusing on a whim or going to the beach that you have been talked about so much. However, you want to cover as much space as possible and visual objectives that define your experience with the "I was there" or "I photographed it and continued long", to downplay it.

Mountain tourism in Cuba, climbing and hiking

Cuba is an island in the middle of the Caribbean, surrounded by sea and covered with green. Much of its territorial extension is populated with vegetation and places suitable for nature tourism, including the coastlines that have given beaches such as Varadero in Matanzas, Playas del Este in Havana or Maguana in Baracoa, etc.\

Where to buy authentic cigars in Cuba

If you are a cigar cigar smoker and on your trip to Cuba you want to bring cigars for yourself or a friend or relative, you should keep in mind that currently the factories DO NOT SELL cigars in Cuba, nobody to offer you a box and tell you that it comes from the factory is telling you the truth, although they can be discarded by the factory quality control.

Cayo Levisa, one of the paradises of Cuba

Located on the north coast of Pinar del Río and only 2 km from the mainland, this small island (Cayo, as it is known in Cuba) has only a surface area of 2.5 km² but has a magnificent beach that extends throughout its entire North coast in a length of 2500 meters and with the magic of its relative isolation since it only connects with land through boats.

Come to know the tobacco farms in Cuba

Heavy rains that are not very typical of this time of year damaged tobacco crops and raised doubts about the iconic brands of Cuban cigars, which some fans hope will not reduce their quality in the face of rising demand.

Buy a car in Cuba

For a moment it was thought that the preponderance of the "almendrones" would disappear with the approval of a law of free sale and importation of new or used cars (because they are not manufactured in Cuba), but prices were born impossible for the vast majority of Cubans, in any of the variants.
