Day 26: Viñales

The valley of Viñales is a world heritage site famous for its curiously shaped hills, called Mogotes.

The town itself is tiny, barely more than a village. The only sight I've been able to find is the church that has greenery growing on its tower:




But of course, nature is the real attraction here. I rented a bicycle for the day - the valley is too big to explore on foot. I have to say, the trip to Viñales was definitely worth it. Just have a look at this gorgeous landscape:








And of course, sitting on a bike again was also great - even if it wasn't as nice as my own ;-)
