Havana - Calle Obispo
Perhaps Havana's most vibrant street, Calle Obispo is a great spot for an evening stroll. Well lit and perfectly preserved, the feeling of being there is like that of stepping back in time. The street has a pulse, a beat that makes it feel alive. Rich in history, architecture, and entertainment, the Calle Obispo is famous Cuba-wide.
The narrow roadway throngs with life in the evening and many restaurants are available including the world famous El Floridita.
