Cuba's second largest city, Santiago
de Cuba, is the most
Caribbean of the
island's cities since it was greatly
influenced by immigration and trade from
other Caribbean islands. The influences
range from African, Spanish and the French
West Indies.
It is proud of its revolutionary heroes,
beautiful squares and vibrant musical
tradition. And it is known particularly for
its carnival.
The magnificent lanscape of the city is
surrounded by impressive Sierra Maestra and
links it to the sea. Santiago is a city of
hills so bring good walking shoes.
