Havana, Cuba
Old Havana transports you straight into a living time capsule where colorful colonial architecture meets the rumble of vintage American cars cruising down cobblestone streets. Every corner reveals pastel-painted facades, weathered doorways, and baroque details that whisper stories of centuries past. The authentic energy here is intoxicating—street musicians fill the air with infectious rhythms, local artisans showcase their crafts, and the scent of mojitos and Cuban cigars drifts through bustling plazas. The best time to visit is November through March when temperatures are perfect for wandering. The dry season brings ideal weather for photography, especially during golden hour when sunlight hits those iconic vintage Cadillacs and Chevrolets at just the right angle. Don't miss Plaza de la Catedral at dusk or the atmospheric bars tucked into 16th-century buildings. This is Cuba's soul distilled into walkable blocks—a place where history isn't behind glass but alive on the streets around you.
