A colonial palace. A neoclassical capital. A revolutionary plaza. What can these places teach us about the past—and the present?
In A Walking Tour of Historic Havana, you’ll trace the lives and afterlives of three iconic spaces in Havana, Cuba, with Professor Michael Bustamante of the University of Miami as your guide. As you visit these historic locales and hear their stories, you’ll have the chance to discover how Cuba’s history is layered, how past and present overlap, how old meanings are reimagined, and how the struggle over symbols and space is, in fact, a struggle over the nation’s soul.
