A seaside roadway that protects Havana from the sea. A meeting ground for young people and families. Construction started in 1901 its the most impressive waterfront I have ever seen. Not only because it is 5 miles long but because it serves a greater purpose than just being a seawall or a boardwalk - it is a social scene.

The 8 lane highway has no cross walks or stoplights yet you will see people crossing it on a constant basis without fear of getting run over by cars. Cubans do no believe in painting cross walks on streets. Eitherway it would be pointless because a highway that long would need crosswalks every block since people sit all along it.

Habana is a beautiful city. A mix of the old and the new but mostly old. Luckily the old stuff is more amazing than most of the new stuff in the rest of the Caribbean. I spent 6 days in cuba and all I did was walk up and down the maze of streets, alleys, buying food and saying "Buenos dias". I did take a city tour twice. Make sure you bring lots of water. Below are mostly pictures of buildings and sites I have a separate people project and even more buildings in the high life project.
