Museo Arqueologico la Cueva Del Paraiso, Guantanamo Province, Cuba

4.0 (117 reviews) Spent 1-2 hours Ranking #5 in Guantanamo Province Speciality Museums

Educational

A bit hard to find - but ask the locals, they will point you in the right direction. Small cave that used to be used as a burial site for the local Taínos (natives that were there before Columbus and his lot exterminated them). There is a bit of written description and the caves different floors don't take long to peruse. The guide in the hut however gets A+ for knowledge about the cave and also about local wildlife species.

    Interesting and different experience
    Hard to find cave housing several exhibits. A hard walk from town centre with lots uphill. Some interesting stuff here.

    a must - didn't get to spend enough time...sad
    a trip that is important - it shows life and how we can live differently. good to know that Cuba has been caring about things America is seeming to forget about. sigh
