Holidays in Havana
The capital of the Republic of Cuba, with a population of about 1 million, is located in the north-west of Cuba on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. The city was founded by the Spanish conquistador of Velasquez in 1519-1521. Since the end of the sixteenth century, it has been the main Spanish port in the Antilles and the trans-shipment base for the shipment to Spain of gold and silver in America. In subsequent years, until the middle of the twentieth century, Cuba has had great influence on the part of the United States. Since January 1959, with the victory of the people ' s revolution, the national independence of the Republic has become possible. Havana is one of the most beautiful cities in the Western Hemisphere.
