Trinidad
An hour’s drive south of Cienfuegos is Trinidad, Cuba’s third oldest settlement, a UNESCO World Heritage site with many cobbled streets and decaying palatial buildings built with profits from the sugar mills. Sugar plantations can still be seen by taking a lovely steam train through Valle de los Ingenios (Sugar mill valley). Playa Ancón, a beach resort 7 miles from Trinidad, is a popular base for tourists.
