Havana is the capital of Cuba and sits on the north coast of the island. A trip to Havana is an unforgettable experience that allows you to step back in time and immerse yourself in its ramshackle streets and crumbling buildings surrounded by 1950s chevys and colourful locals pondering in their balcony based rocking chairs. The UNESCO World Heritage listed old town offers wonderful museums, galleries and colonial architecture by day and a bustling bar scene in the warm evenings fueled by rum and salsa music. If arriving in December be sure to attend the Latin American New Cinema Festival which is a huge event that draws 500,000 people.
