No contest, Cubans are some of the most striking people I've ever seen, women and men both. And part of the secret, I'm sure, is the fact that the people are a complete mix of ethnicities. You can see the full spectrum of every skin tone under the sun. Certain parts of the country are more heavily descended from early slave families, and other parts are descended from French and Spanish colonists. 400 years later it's a big fascinating melting pot.
