Time stopped in the 1950s — vintage cars, mojitos, and Cuban salsa make it like nowhere else.
Havana is as if time stopped in the 1950s: old Chevrolets and Buicks curve past pastel colonial buildings on the Malecón waterfront boulevard, salsa plays on every corner, and mojitos are the world's finest. Habana Vieja old town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Cuban culture is unique, isolated, and therefore completely authentic.
