As numerous guidebooks write, this is one of the main symbols of Havana. I can't help but agree.
The embankment stretches along residential areas for many kilometers and is a wide concrete canvas.
There are no trees here, during our trip active restoration work was carried out, from which there was a lot of dust. There is nowhere to hide from the heat, so there are not many people here during the day. But nevertheless, the power of the concrete wall, the waves of the Atlantic are impressive. The famous Cuban carnival takes place along the promenade, which attracts crowds of tourists to the Malecon.
During the day, there are mostly tourists with photographic equipment and children on the rocks in the water.
As the sun goes down, life on the Malecon comes alive and there are really a lot of Cubans and crowds of tourists. Music, dancing, noise and fun. And, of course, beggars and merchants of "all sorts of things. "
The route of the red Tourbus runs along the embankment, on the second floor of which you can drive and see the sights located here: the Monument to American Sailors, the Presidential Palace, the National, Duville hotels and others.
American vintage cars passing from time to time against the background of "shabby" facades of buildings mentally return to the days of pre-revolutionary Cuba.
