Overview

"CHARMING COMBINATIONS: LAS TERRAZAS - SOROA" Tour

The community of Las Terrazas, is located in the Sierra del Rosario, one of the natural fortresses of Cuba, declared a Biosphere Reserve by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1985. Arriving at Las Terrazas is like entering the intensity of the exquisite wild places where human beings and nature merge. This is the impression given by the evergreen forests, rivers and waterfalls of crystalline waters. To enter the community is to have the certainty that beautiful places really exist and that human efforts to protect the natural environment persist.

The history of coffee cultivation, which began in the region in the 19th century, is one of the main attractions for customers at the Buenavista restaurant, built on the ruins of the coffee farm of the same name, founded by the French.

Soroa, also known as the Rainbow of Cuba, is a privileged place for the conservation of the richness, variety and excellence of its flora and fauna. This site has the largest orchid garden in the country, where more than 750 different varieties of orchids and several species of ferns have found a pleasant refuge. This colorful garden is a paradise for orchid lovers. Don't miss the spectacular 22-meter high waterfall that invites you to take a refreshing bath at any time of the year.
