About Havana

Havana feels like stepping into a time capsule. The decades-long embargo created a living museum of 1950s architecture and culture. Pastel-colored colonial buildings line cobblestone streets. Vintage Cadillacs and Chevrolets—carefully maintained by their owners—cruise the Malecón waterfront. Live music erupts from doorways: son cubano, salsa, and guaguancó. The air smells of cigars and mojitos. Despite economic hardship, the spirit of Cuba's people shines through their creativity, dance, and warmth. Havana is rapidly changing—visit soon to experience its timeless character.
