Havana

 Havana is a dusty city, but at the same time it is very attractive, colorful and magnetic. This is an important megalopolis with 2.5 million inhabitants. The historic center of Havana is full of narrow, quiet side streets, where the visitor can find a great number of baroque churches, dazzling white palaces and mansions that are a clear reminder of the Spanish power. The city was founded in 1519 and named after Christopher Columbus as "Villa de San Cristobal de la Habana". It became very soon a gateway to the New World and a city full of architectural treasures. The Pearl of the Antilles prospered and progressively in the city appeared beautiful parks and boulevards, Belle Époque style mansions, modern buildings in Art Deco style and other architectural monuments that clearly show the uniqueness and diversity of the Cuban culture. next>>>

 

Cienfuegos

Cienfuegos is the third biggest Cuban city right after Havana and Santiago de Cuba. This city is located on the southern coastal area of Cuba, at the shores of Jagua Bay and is one of the most beautiful cities of the island. In 1745 the fort Castillo de Jagua (Jagua Fortress) was built at the entrance of the bay. This was the starting point for the construction of the city, which was founded by French colonists in 1817 next to the fort. As many other colonial cities, Cienfuegos thrived thanks to sugar and tobacco trade. During the 19th century, Cienfuegos and Trinidad were rival cities, but Cienfuegos surpassed Trinidad and became a prosperous port and trade center. next>>>
