programs the one that goes deeper into the rescue process of Cuban
architectural heritage, the analysis of construction tendencies and
styles during five centuries until the present, and includes more
visits to prominent places in the exciting cities of Havana, Trinidad
and Cienfuegos.

still prevails in some city areas, and make yourself a connoisseur
of this art expression in Cuba.
