Santiago de Cuba Province Attractions

 
The province of Santiago de Cuba is a naturally beautiful area with the rugged mountains of the Sierra Maestra running through this area of Cuba. The mountains provide a great place for hiking and contain some historical sites. This is where Fidel Castro located his headquarters during the Revolution, a site that is now open to visitors.

However, the main highlight of Santiago de Cuba province is the capital city, also called Santiago de Cuba. It is one of the oldest cities in the country and full of culture. The July Carnival is an event to be experienced if your

calendar permits.
