Sancti Spiritus is located in Central Cuba where it is largely unaffected by the influences of tourism. A city that contains all the hallmarks of the Cuban revolution, Sancti Spiritus is well worth a visit if only for its unique Cuban villas and monuments. There are some interesting museums and landmarks including the Roman Baroque Iglesia Parroquial Mayor, the Mural de la Juvetud and the old jail. The distinct lack of tourism is a great aspect for those wishing to get a feel for local life and smoke a cigar with Cuban elders in the central square. The nearby Presa Zaza is a large lake that makes for a nice day trip to observe the many species of wildlife.
