Images of Rural Cuba - Pinar del Rio
by Andy / FarAndFurther-team
The Pinar del Río province is in the western tip of the island of Cuba. It is a rural area which relies heavily on tobacco farming and is characterized by its steep sided karst hills, mogotes, and beautiful green valleys. Here is a photo series I took when we visited Vinales and its surrounding areas in Pinar del Rio province.
Oxen are still used for farm field work
Our friendly driver checking the coordinates
We had never seen a banana flower before...
A shop in Pinar del Rio - not much on offer...
Same goes for this cafeteria
But we bought some refreshing fruit juice from this vendor...
... and delicious fresh bananas from this gentleman
A perfect way to spend an afternoon
These little girls had just been performing in a school play
It is surprising to find a Freemasons' temple in
a small Cuban village
A lighthouse on Cayo Jutias
So so cool... Too bad the beach restaurant
at Cayo Jutias
had been swept away by a hurricane
... which also destroyed this forest
As always in Cuba, Fidel posters are everywhere
