He commissioned a cliff to be painted with snails, dinosaurs, and a family of cavepersons, in garish colors! There is a restaurant, bar, and gift shop. The food in the restaurant is reputed to be excellent and the live music is good, and locals say that the piña colada in the bar is the best in Viñales. Also there is horseback riding. So consider visiting the mural and doing something other than looking at the mural. You do not have to pay the entrance fee to see the painted mountain cliff, its visible from the road.
