Trinidad Attractions

 
Visiting the town of Trinidad is like stepping back into another time period. The beautifully restored homes, church, and other buildings, along with the cobble stone streets and lack of modern architecture in the city center give the town a truly Colonial feel. This historic area of Trinidad was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988. Much of the architecture dates to between the 17th and 19th Centuries when Trinidad was a wealthy town, prospering from both the sugar and slave trades.

Today Trinidad is one of Cuba's most popular tourist towns and the streets are often packed with foreigners.
