Santiago De Cuba Carnival Capital

From most casa particulars Santiago de Cuba located close to the centre you can walk over to Parque Cespedes!

Santiago de Cuba was the capital of Cuba for a few decades back in the 16th Century, but it is still the capital of the carnival!

Santiago is famous for having the most vibrant, colorful, and never-ending carnival fiestas in Cuba!

The city also has one of the 9 UNESCO protected World Heritage sites that exist in Cuba: the San Pedro de la Roca fortification.

Situated almost 900 kilometers from Havana (20 hours on the Viazul bus), it is hard to visit both Havana and Santiago in one holiday.

But it is possible, and Santiago, with its rich history, and the surrounding areas, definitely are worth your time!
