Cuba: Cienfuegos – Around Town
Cienfuegos is the town on the southern coast of Cuba and is a UNESCO World Heritage site for its architecture. In the center of town is a large square and park with Jose Marti Monument. Around the Jose Marti park are the spectacular Cathedral de la Purisma Concepción, Palacio de Valle, Arco de Triunfo (the only Triumph Arch in Cuba), and Tomas Terry Theater (next post). Venturing further away from the main square brings you to a grid of streets with buildings all having columned porticos, quite an impressive site as well.
