On this
picture you can observe what a rocking chair looks like. There
is almost in all Cuban home a rocking chair. Some homes have a
rocking chair for each member of the family. It is as a
tradition to have a rocking chair at home in Cuba. The rocking
chair is also known as rocker. A rocking is very comfortable it
balances forwards and backwards, it is also very relaxing as
chair. Until now it is not exactly known from where the rocking
chair comes from, there has been no clear information about it
until nowadays. It seems though that the rocking chair exist
since 1725 but was not the same design as today’s rocker. The
rocker was used at this period as a garden chair. You will see
in Trinidad in front of houses, families sitting in their
rocking chairs and relaxing or smoking a cigar. Nowadays there
are different styles of rocking chairs which are constructed. In
the hotels in Trinidad, Cuba, you will also find rocking chairs
on the balconies of the hotel rooms. So just sit in a rocker
while being in Cuba and relax and why not smoke a cigar too. |
