Arriving Guantánamo city

An empty motorway and an lonely horse cart let us to Guantánamo city. The toponym "Guantánamo" means, in Taíno language, "land between the rivers".
(About 15 km away from the city lies the Guantánamo Bay, a superior natural harbor which has been utilized by the United States since 1898, when it was captured from Spain in the Battle of Guantánamo Bay. In 1903 Cuba leased it to the U.S. as it had committed to in the Cuban–American Treaty of Relations, and remains the site of a US Navy base, as well as the Guantanamo Bay detention camp.)
