A Bohemian Hang-Out

In a city as open to the sea as Havana, each twilight graces its inhabitants with an amazing present. Whether on the Malecón - the sea wall running along the north side of the city - or from any building with a line of sight to the horizon, Havana's sunsets are a beautiful natural spectacle worth pausing for.

Later into the evening and throughout the Cuban capital, doors start opening to invite lovers of music a sleepless night full of rhythm and sound. Their options include the soulful Boleros and Filin ballads and the more energetic Afro-Cuban jam sessions called the Descargas. During these jams, musicians gather for the sheer enjoyment to improvise and open their hearts. They are free to anyone who wants to give themselves away to feelings of joy and that, amongst Cubans, is more than enough
