Looking around you realize that the main product of the province of Pinar del Rio’s tobacco (the best in the world, especially near San Juan y Martinez), but also you will see rice fields and sugar plantations, citrus and coffee. http://autenticacuba.com/pinar-del-rio/#axzz3zIydPEyr

The westernmost of the Cuban provinces is favored by nature, which is why you will find an incredible amount of interesting corners. Try to go to the Valley of Vinales (in the heart of the Sierra de los Organos), where you will find a landscape of dazzling colors. By moving in the Valley de las Dos Hermanas (very near), you can find the Mural of Prehistory, work realized by the Cuban artist Leovigildo Gonzalez Morrillo. Pinar del Rio will continue to surprise you with its many caves, fantastic sandy beaches (do not miss the one of Las Tumbas, to Cape San Antonio), but also the waterfalls of the Manantiales frothy river (in the Sorca area). http://www.lasterrazas.cu/
