Cultourica, Habana, Cuba
General Information on Habana
In Habana, the capital of Cuba, there are more than 2.5 millions inhabitants. Habana is a city pulsating with colour and life - even the name Habana evokes images of dusky maidens, cigar smoke, revolution and passion. The architecture of Old Habana is very charming with its narrow, cobbled streets, shady plazas, grilled windows and grand, if in many places, crumbling buildings. The Cubans are optimistic and their infectious smiles will make any visitor feel welcome.

Habana Film Festival (01.Dec- 12.Dec)
