Alejo Carpentier the famous Cuban writer describes the singularity of Havana with the words Real Maravilloso, expressing something like "wonderful reality". The Cuban seaport, situated in the Caribbean, casts a spell on visitors with its charm, sensuality, music, colours and smells. The city of pillars has many faces: historical colonial buildings lie next to Art Nouveau, neoclassicism or Art Deco houses, but also multi-storey buildings from the fifties and the changing architecture of urban housing of various construction periods shape the cityscape. Apart from the Spanish and African influences, the Chinese Diaspora adds its very own special charm to some city quarters. Oak tree lined Avenidas alternate with narrow, labyrinth like alleys and streets. Enchanting parks and green spaces as well as historical plazas and of course the mystical seaside avenue Malecón - "the balcony to the ocean" - invite to linger. Here and in the streets of the Barrios, life is pulsating and although everyday Cuban life has its downsides, people enjoy life to the full and are a communicative sort like no one else.
