Cuba Cities - Trinidad

Cuba Cities - Trinidad

Trinidad, on Cuba's south central coast, is a city of 75,000 people –– a handful of whom still enjoy a casual jaunt through the streets on horseback. This is a city that, despite being at the heart of Cuba's tourism boom, has retained its old-world charm and local vibe. Cobblestone streets connect a series of sunny plazas, surrounded by pastel-hued homes, tall palm trees, and a collection of the shiniest vintage vehicles to be found outside Havana. In the evening, these plazas come alive with the sultry sounds of Cuban salsa. Trinidad also boasts easy access to beaches and mountains that rival some of Cuba's most famous, making it an overachieving, all-rounder kind of city destination. You may find it difficult to leave!

Cuba Cities - Cienfuegos

Cuba Cities - Cienfuegos

If you're a city escape kind of traveler and want to discover more of Cuban city life, then make your way to Cienfuegos. Smaller than Havana and Trinidad, Cienfuegos is a walkable city, and you'll likely find yourself wandering around the plazas, parks, and boulevards from sunup to sundown. Set on a beautiful bay, the Bahia de Cienfuegos, the city seems continuously bathed in sunlight and warm coastal breezes. With palm trees lining the streets, there is a very tropical vibe here that has attracted visitors for centuries. Indeed, Cienfuegos is unique to other colonial cities in Cuba in that it was settled by the French for a few hundred years after the Spanish arrived. The striking architecture from those centuries earned Cienfuegos UNESCO status in 2005.

Cuba Cities - Havana (Metro)

Cuba Cities - Havana (Metro)

Havana is one of those cities that refuses to jump fully into modernity. It's no easier to imagine a simpler, less frenetic world than when wandering the colorful colonial homes of Havana and observing the vintage cars parked on cobblestone streets. History and culture can be found here in abundance, not only in the city's excellent museums and architectural wonders but around every street corner. Neighbors call to one another from open doorways and the rhythms of salsa roll softly down alleyways where old men play chess and dominoes to pass the time. While Cubans open their arms wholeheartedly to a future seemingly packed with incoming tourists, they are comfortable and confident in having one foot firmly in the past –– and this is what makes Havana such an enjoyable city to explore.
