What I like about Cuba is that it has many sides. The good, the bad and the ugly. The good? Combine low-cost living, perfect winter weather and more than 300 beautiful beaches surrounded by turquoise seas and you know why people would like to live there (and at least visit the place!) The bad? For individual US tourists it may be hard to visit the place once again... Also, although violent crime is very uncommon, petty crime is quite common and at times harder to avoid. The ugly? Talk China Town. Perhaps the only China Town in the world without China-linked inhabitants. Today part two of Cuba's photo series!

For me, highlights of Cuba includes the Spanish colonial towns of Havana (art deco architecture and vintage American cars are still here, yes!) and Trinidad, as well as the beautiful landscapes of the Viñales Valley. Crime is relatively low compared to countries of similar development:
“There is almost no gun crime, violent robbery, organised gang culture, teenage delinquency, drugs or dangerous no-go zones.” If a local comes at you holding a machete, he’s probably about to split open a coconut for you." - Lonely Planet.
Aaaaah those beaches! Cuba features everything from vast stretches of golden sand to hidden tropical bays. Go find out yourself!
nice pix i like it. wasome world.
Cuba looks like that time wheel stopped in 1958 year
Awesome photos indeed and full of life.
I love your photography very much.
Keep it up
Cuba's an awesome place to travel to, looks like the beaches are nice to check out! My american friend wasn't able to go there for years, and heck even the import of Cuban cigars still is illegal there. But now more and more tourists will be piling on, the economy will grow in no time. Good post! #upvoted
Nice shots!....:)...
If you like it so much why don't you stay in the "communist paradise"? Renounce your capitalist dollars, traveling passport and stay forever like a regular cuban...
It's too easy to go there for a week, look at the caged zombies from an air conditioned bus on the way to the hotel or a closed resort, cherry pick photos of the few places not destroyed by the communist regime and then say how wonderful it was. That's not Cuba, you visited a Potemkim Village.

I haven't thought about visiting Cuba, but with these pictures, I'd love to visit this great country.
Love the colourful cars!
Nice photos. I wish I could take good photos like that. I once posted a travel post under photography and someone criticized me for my poor photos. I never dared to post anything under photography ever again. lol.
Upvote and resteem. Not because your photos are worth it, but to demonstrate the exponential and manipulative lobby power of Steemit.
Nice set of photos my friend, now I will follow you, Thank you for sharing!
desde la histórica altura
donde el sol de tu bravura
le puso cerco a la muerte.
Aquí se queda la clara,
la entrañable transparencia,
de tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara.
Tu mano gloriosa y fuerte
sobre la historia dispara
cuando todo Santa Clara
se despierta para verte.
Aquí se queda la clara,
la entrañable transparencia,
de tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara.
Vienes quemando la brisa
con soles de primavera
para plantar la bandera...
Thanks for the pics, Cuba looks so great, I cant imagine one spending vacation there!!!
Wow awesome your every photography really awesome .I am interesting visit this place.
Great post!
Nature is more than I enjoy. In particular, this brick wood captured from a busy mechanical life of a fictitious camera might have taken us some time to nature.
I want to go to Cuba because I think it's an excellent country to make incredible photos, it's like traveling back in time. But I do not have enough resources, so whenever I can, I travel to different cities within my country and try to make the best possible pictures. Photos like these:
Mompox, Colombia
Bocas de Ceniza, Barranquilla-Colombia.
great photos you shared following you now

I've never been to Cuba, but your pictures remind me of Peru. Old world Spanish colonial architecture mixed in with obsolete "modern" technology, like the cars (from the 50's and 60's), electric/telephone wires strung haphazardly across streets and buildings, yet the streets are crowded with people talking and texting on the latest smart phones. It's a strange mix of old and new world, poverty and wealth, clean but dilapidated, all at the same time.
It's like being in Disneyland, visiting a particular theme area where it almost looks like the structures and the costumes are fake...but it's real world stuff.
Hopefully I'll make it to Cuba one day to see for myself. Thanks for posting...cool stuff!
Cuba, old but ageless in all dimensions.
Great photos :)
