These photos were taken in 2017. Regretfully, for some reason I have not been editing and uploading photos for years, even including some photos take before this batch.

Most people travel to Cuba out of curiosity, to see what kind of country Cuba is. For me, I don't think one can understand a country much just by traveling there for a week or so. My intention was simply to add some photos of one more country to my collection. My tour was in Cuba for 7 nights. The first 3 nights we stayed in Cienfuegos and used it as a hub to make day trips to Trinidad and Santa Clara. The last 4 nights were spent in Havana. From what I've seen, what impressed me most was their classical architecture, though some famous buildings were still under restoration at that time. However, even the regular houses are not built in a fancy way, the colours make them look very attractive.

Cuban people are calm and friendly, not too talkative, and a lot of them are very musical. One thing particularly amazed me, was that the Cuban people had high respect for the public property. All the treasure that was displayed in the street, there was no vandalization or graffiti. I would say that the Cubans have very good concept of discipline.
