September 5th sign
During the Cuban Revolution, the city saw an uprising against Fulgencio Batista and was bombed in retaliation on September 5, 1957.
One more!
I liked the propaganda signs. All different styles.
Love it!
I am amused by interesting signs. Also, more propaganda on the building in the background!
Ebony
I had no idea what some of these trees looked like.
Mahogany
It had pods all over it that is being tested for medicinal purposes.
Magnolia
All of the trees they had were very old.
Botanical Gardens
The first stop of our tour!
Cool houses!
The majority of houses we saw looked very Brady Bunch-esque. I loved it!
Pay phones
I was fascinated by the working pay phones. There's also a subtle propaganda sign on the building.
Lots of colors
Just like in Havana, the buildings were all different colors.
