"Panoramic Tour of Las Terrazas"

Description:

The community of Las Terrazas, is located in the Sierra del Rosario, province of Artemisa, declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1985. You will find a small village of simple houses, which enjoys the beautiful views of the lake from the terraces in the mountains. When you arrive you are surrounded by evergreen forests, rivers and waterfalls with crystal clear water, fresh breezes and birds singing, a rural environment that invites you to enjoy nature tourism.

This is the location of the first coffee settlements in the country in the 19th century founded by Frenchmen who came from Louisiana. Today, after two centuries, there are still vestiges of the Buena Vista, Santa Serafina, La Victoria, San Pedro, Santa Catalina and La Unión coffee plantations, where the high degree of specialization with which they were designed is appreciable.

Without a doubt, the terraces are the ideal place for nature and history lovers, a place that will make you live an unforgettable experience.
