[Cuba] Vinales Valley, the home of tobacco, a World Heritage Site

🌞Vinales Valley is an agricultural town about two hours' drive from Havana. It has become a world-renowned tobacco producing area due to its unique valley terrain, castel landforms and fertile nitrogen-containing red soil. The United Nations listed it as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. 🚬Visiting tobacco fields and smoking cigars are definitely a must-do itinerary. I spent a lot of money to participate in a one-day tour. I rode on horses along the way and was pulled by the groom to visit the entire town. On the way, we stopped to see how farmers harvested tobacco, dried it and preserved it. Everyone here is very good at rolling their own tobacco, smoking cigarettes OUT! 🚬It takes about 2-3 months for tobacco to grow. After harvesting, it needs to be placed in a specially shaped barn to dry for another month, turning into the familiar dark green dead leaves🍂. 90% of these tobaccos are purchased by the Cuban government, and farmers can keep 10% for themselves. As we all know, Cuban cigars are famous all over the world and earn a lot of foreign exchange for Cuba every year [strong] 🚬 Don't forget to spend two days in this quiet valley when you come to Cuba to play, walk in the tobacco fields and feel this unique local customs. The simplicity of Cuba 🇨🇺 will definitely impress you #Cuban Cigars #Cuban Tobacco
