    Mural de la Prehistoria

    Amidst the fertile landscape, a Mexican artist painted a gigantic picture on a rock, the Mural de la Prehistoria, the Prehistoric Wall. It was completed in 1961, and every tourist who was in Viñales has seen the colorful rock paintings. The idea for the gigantic painting came from Fidel Castro and a group of scientists. The motif is the evolutionary history of the earth, from the fossils to the dinosaurs to humans, because in the rocks many fossils were found. Because of the heavy rains, the work of art has to be restored two to three times a year by a group of painters.
