Viñales, the Cuban Capital of Cigars | SLICE TRAVEL

Viñales, a small town built on tobacco growing, has become the Cuban capital of eco-tourism. Time seems to stand still here. In this region, the regime never applied the agrarian reforms. No doubt because Fidel Castro always depended on Cuban cigars as a source of foreign currency.

Much to the delight of tourists, who are drawn here by the strange backdrop of the Mogotes, these steep mountains that date back to the era of the dinosaurs. Surrounded by this limestone landscape, Paco, local tobacco producer, seems unperturbed by the changes that are looming.
