Though not a typical tourist attraction, visiting Lenin Park can really give you something plus in your trip to the city. It is quite a large park, with shops and bars, an amusement park, bicycle rides and a swimming pool. You can also ride a horse for a very small fee, which is what we did, and it was so much fun, we couldn't get enough of it.

Here you can interact more freely with Cubans and look into the Cuban lifestyle without restrictions. You could take some food with you and having a picnic in the park is the best way to spend your lazy Sunday afternoon. It is definitely worth trying out! :)

Havana History

On June 6 1762, Cuba was taken over by the British during the Seven Year War.  This change in power led to a change in the products flowing in and out because now Cuba was able to trade with the rest of the Caribbean and North America which were also ruled by the British Crown.  This led way to the introduction of different foods, goods and animals onto the island.  As the war came to a close [...]
