Callejón
de Hamel
San Lazaro # 955
E/ Aramburu y Hospital
Centro Habana
This
project, dating back to 1990, highlights the prevalence
of African influences on Cuban culture. It was initiated
by the sculptor and painter Salvador Gonzáles
who, together with a group of friends, decided to paint
a mural celebrating Afro-Cuban culture, reclaiming a public
space as a forum for what they see as both a cultural example
of community-based art. A rumba group gathers at the spot
at noon every Sunday at 12:00, and musicians as important
as Clave y Guaguancó and Los Muñequitos de
Matanzas have been known to attend.
The last Friday of each month is Ballad Night, with poetry
and traditional music. One Saturday per month is dedicated
to children's entertainment, and puppet shows, comic theatre
and clowns abound.
Disabled access is available.

El
Malecón
Even
though it begins in Old Havana, the Malecón (the
pier) is an area that was the face of Havana in the 50s.
Havana was then trying to emulate the great American capitals.
The pier wall is the ideal place to enjoy the salty sea
air, sit down and admire the sunset. Some of its best spots
are the view of El Morro, the dock where you can go by boat
to Casablanca and the area adjacent to El Vedado.
Disabled access is available.

Centro Habana
La Habana
Havana
has an active Chinese community and a number of Chinese
restaurants. A lot of Chinese restaurants can be found in
Centro Havana at 10 Cuchillo Street. The strip contains
10 restaurants that serve a full spectrum of Chinese dishes.
|
The
food in the restaurants in Chinatown is excellent in both quality
and price.These restaurants are private family owned businesses,
unlike most restaurants in Cuba that are government controlled.
This results in a much greater concern to serve the customer.
Meals are served within minutes of ordering and great attention
is given to the preparation of the food.
You
can enjoy an entire meal (with the exception of the more exotic
dishes), including soup, fried rice, a main dish and a drink for
no more than 4 cuc. Disabled access is available.
Average cost per person: 5.00 cuc 10
Address: Calle Cuchillo, Centro Habana, La Habana.
