点评:It is a fertile rural valley and the town is very quaint …. We spent 3 1/2 full days and really could have done it in half the time. It is about 2.5 hours by car away from Havana. We took a collectivo … which is like a fixed rate share taxi … we shared with another couple (our accommodation host organised it for us) and it cost $25US each. We stayed in a guest house … there are MANY to choose from. But be warned … electricity shortages are lengthy, food shortages are common and things on the menu are often not available. Wifi is non existent (without the electricity) and the reception is poor … we found sitting in the town plaza was the best place to access it … we bought a wifi card for 1 hour for 25 Cuban pesos from a text store… there’s a few in town. Don’t expect too much … it is rough diamond to look at, but the people are friendly and generous. They are helpful and even though few speak English (and our Spanish is limited) we managed to be understood. There seems to be a limited number of activities that don’t take too long to experience… the horse riding can be done in the morning … takes about 3-4 hours. And in the afternoon the caves ( the river boat one is better than the other), large hill mural and lookout can be competed. Due to the distance, an overnight stay may be helpful to rest).
A word of warning for the faint hearted (like me) … the collectivo taxis we used did not have seatbelts and the vintage cars (although cool) did not have speedometers either! Car speed was approximate … I’m sure we went faster than the 100 sign posts.
翻译:这是一个肥沃的乡村山谷,小镇非常古雅……我们花了三天半的时间,其实可以用一半的时间。从哈瓦那开车大约 2.5 小时。我们乘坐了一辆集体出租车……就像是固定费率的共享出租车……我们和另一对夫妇一起坐(我们的住宿主人为我们安排了这趟车),每人花费 25 美元。我们住在一家宾馆……有很多选择。但要注意……电力短缺持续了很长时间,粮食短缺很常见,菜单上的东西经常缺货。没有 Wifi(没有电),信号很差……我们发现坐在城镇广场是上网的最佳地点……我们从一家短信商店买了一张 1 小时的 wifi 卡,花了 25 古巴比索……镇上有几个这样的商店。不要期望太多……看起来就像未经雕琢的钻石,但人们友好而慷慨。他们很乐于助人,尽管很少有人会说英语(我们的西班牙语也有限),但他们还是理解了我们。似乎只有有限的活动,而且不需要花太长时间就可以体验……骑马可以在早上进行……大约需要 3-4 小时。下午可以参观洞穴(河船比另一个更好)、大型山壁画和瞭望台。由于距离较远,过夜可能会有助于休息)。
对于胆小的人(比如我)来说,需要提醒的是……我们乘坐的集体出租车没有安全带,老式汽车(虽然很酷)也没有速度计!汽车速度是近似的……我敢肯定我们比 100 个路标更快。
