We left Havana direction east and after a comfortable three hour bus drive arrived in the mid-sized town Cienfuegos. Cienfuegos is famous for its former French influence which can still be witnessed from its many neoclassical villas, erected in a time when the region was prospering thanks to its many sugar plantations and had a lot of money to spend. Some of the most impressing ones are the Club Nautico, the baby-blue Palacio Azul and the Arabian-inspired Placio de Valle

All are dotted nicely along the main boulevard, which also has a beautiful seaside section which becomes lively in the evening with families and romantic couples.

We stayed in two very different private casas, one at the most southern coastal tip with cozy hammocks and a beautiful restaurant terrace overlooking the bay. Only a shame that the secluded bay was too polluted – I was really looking forward to some swimming in the ocean 🙁

Next we moved to one of the villas along the central promenade, our most beautiful place yet. And as you can see, the living room will be very hard to top:

Overall a very pretty town with a lot of things to explore and a much more casual vibe than Havana.

Beautiful old-school theater:

Transportation works like the combi system in South America, only with a horse carriage instead of a van. The very nice ones are however reserved for tourist rides:

This one really should be in a museum:

Thanks to our large time budget, we also spent time just doing “normal” things, like going to the screening of a Cuban movie in the local “cinema” …

…listening to live music and exploring local “supermarkets”. This week they apparently got a large container from Germany, as every store had tons of German Gurken, salad dressings and tomato sauces

On the other hand, the container with swimming pool supplies was apparently running late. All three swimming pools in town were closed due to lack of chlorine. Viva la revolucion!
