Cuban officials visit Seychelles' cultural and heritage sites
As part of the visit to the islands of Praslin and La Digue, the Cuban Ambassador, Martha Hernandez and the Minister Counsellor, Tomas Mendez, visited the Vallé de Mai Nature Reserve. This reserve was declared a natural heritage of humanity by UNESCO in 1983, for the priceless value of its flora and fauna, for having the largest plantations of the Coco de Mer, an endemic species of the archipelago, which produces the largest seed in the world that can exceed 20 kg in weight, a unique tree which is the pride and symbol of Seychelles.
