In addition, this province also has two beautiful and paradisiacal keys full of nature where the impact of man has been reduced to a minimum: Cayo Levisa and Cayo Jutías.

In the provinces of Artemisa and Mayabeque, which surround Havana, are the Soroa Natural Park and the Las Terrazas ecological complex, both located within the Sierra del Rosario Biosphere Reserve, a beautiful enclave of great natural beauty whose main Attractions are known as Salto del Arcoíris, an impressive natural waterfall, the towns of Soroa and Las Terrazas and the Orquideario de Soroa, a botanical garden where you can find more than 20,000 specimens of 700 species of orchids.
