Hola amigos de Hive, espero estén teniendo una semana maravillosa al lado de familiares y amigos. En esta oportunidad, les relataré de mi estancia en una joya geográfica abandonada, que me atrevo a destacar, es una de las más bellas de la Habana. Hago referencia, al antiguo complejo de playas y balnearios de "La Concha."
Hello friends of Hive, I hope you are having a wonderful week with family and friends. In this opportunity, I will tell you about my stay in an abandoned geographic jewel, which I dare to point out, is one of the most beautiful in Havana. I make reference, to the old beach and resort complex of "La Concha."
Este enclave formado por la naturaleza, constituye varios segmentos de playa de arena blanca. Que recibieron el nombre de Playa La Concha, gracias a la gran abundancia de conchas marinas, que terminaban en la orilla de la arena.
This enclave formed by nature, constitutes several segments of white sand beach. They received the name of Playa La Concha, thanks to the great abundance of seashells, which ended at the edge of the sand.
Durante mucho tiempo, fue un sitio de remanso paradisíaco para los pobladores del antiguo municipio Marianao. Los cuales, disfrutaban de este retiro natural, en las épocas veraniegas. Curiosamente, el gobierno constitucional cubano, de los años 50, tenía como colofón en el esparcimiento del pueblo habanero, estas playas, que se les había creado un complejo de instalaciones, para brindar servicios a los bañistas.
For a long time, it was a paradisiacal haven for the inhabitants of the old Marianao municipality. They enjoyed this natural retreat during the summer season. Curiously, the Cuban constitutional government of the 50's had as a culmination in the recreation of the people of Havana, these beaches, which had been created a complex of facilities to provide services to bathers.
Sin embargo, tras el triunfo de la Revolución de Castro, las instalaciones paulatinamente comenzaron a decaer en su mantenimiento. Primero que nada, pasaron a la administración del municipio Playa. Segundo, se priorizó otras instalaciones cercanas, como el Parque de Diversiones La Isla del Coco. Y tercero, lo convirtieron en un reservorio de desechos de varias construcciones. Bajo la excusa, de que no habían fondos para poder mantener este lugar.
However, after the triumph of Castro's Revolution, the facilities gradually began to decline in their maintenance. First of all, they passed to the administration of the Playa municipality. Second, priority was given to other nearby facilities, such as the Cocos Island Amusement Park. And third, they turned it into a reservoir of waste from various constructions. Under the excuse that there were no funds to maintain this place.
A pesar de esto, el pueblo habanero, principalmente el de Marianao, sigue visitando la playa de forma clandestina. Ya que, no es penalizado su entrada. Lamentablemente, esto trajo bastante vandalismo a las antiguas edificaciones, además de contaminación en la arena y el mar.
In spite of this, the people of Havana, mainly the people of Marianao, continue to visit the beach clandestinely. Since, their entrance is not penalized. Unfortunately, this brought a lot of vandalism to the old buildings, as well as contamination of the sand and the sea.
Pero, como si de una virtud natural se tratase, podrán apreciar en las fotografías, que la playa logra mantenerse en pie. En una belleza, paz, y clima perfecto para su propio ecosistema. Que compagina muy bien, con el cuidado de ciudadanos decentes, que sin recibir nada a cambio del gobierno, cuidan la playa. En la cual, personas como yo y mi pareja podamos tomar un buen rato de descanso, siendo testigos de la belleza natural, y de los entusiastas del surf.
But, as if it were a natural virtue, you will be able to appreciate in the photographs, that the beach manages to stay standing. In a beauty, peace, and perfect climate for its own ecosystem. That combines very well with the care of decent citizens, who without receiving anything in return from the government, take care of the beach. In which, people like me and my partner can take a good time of rest, witnessing the natural beauty, and surfing enthusiasts.

Really very interesting place, beautiful, but it seems abandoned. If I understand correctly it is located in Cuba, can you confirm?
Correct, it is located in Cuba. And it is one of the many abandoned places in my country.
