Call or Volta Banjo on the island of Cuba, a region that falls to the west of the meridian of Havana, and that, beginning in the vicinity of Ganja, ending at Cape San Antonio. It is famous for the excellent snuff produced in the fertile valleys of numerous rivers, mainly on the southern slopes of the foothills of the Organ. To give such dictation seems to be a very compelling reasons, namely: the low level the soil of that territory, compared to the top of the already described.

Begin the descent a few miles west of Ganja, being noticed an abrupt change of course in the face of the country. The color of the soil, its components, vegetation, climate, culture and gender in general are quite different. So the rapid decline is a ramp that goes and a hill for which comes from the Volta Abuja.

On the brink of this precipitous ramp unfolds before the eyes of the traveler a huge box, gorgeous, no canvas that contains, or will cover human eyes in all its grandeur. Imagine an apparent plateau, bounded on the west by the mists of the distant horizon to the north by the bare hills that run along the coast, and south by harsh and altered hills that are part of the vast mountain range of the Volta Abuja. We say apparent plain, because it is effectively a successive series of transverse valleys, narrow and deep, formed by as many streams, creeks and streams that descend from the northern slopes of the mountains and, after a course twisted and gentle, is lost in the great river unhealthy malaria in Mariel and Cabins.
