"Time Out" Havana by Time Out Guides Ltd

The Caribbean outpost of communism that is Cuba holds an enduring fascination for the free world, redolent of glamour and gamblers, musicians, writers, and mafiosi. Written by informed residents, Time Out Havana highlights all the vibrancy, cultural richness, and architectural beauty of Havana. Here are authoritative reviews of where to stay -- including the rewarding casas particular (private homes) -- and play -- from colorful salsa joints to hip hop clubs. The city's renowned cuisine is profiled, including classy caf s and the lively paladars (independent, state-sanctioned, family-run restaurants). Showcasing other Cuban destinations of interest, from beaches to barrios, this third edition features new sidebars, photographs, listings, updated maps, and a new culture chapter for context.

Founded in 1968, Time Out has grown from humble beginnings into the leading resource for anyone wanting to know what's happening in the world's greatest cities. Alongside our influential weeklies in London, New York, Chicago and Dubai, we publish more than 20 magazines in cities as varied as Beijing and Beirut; a range of travel books, with City Guides now joined by pocket-sized Shortlist series; and an information-packed website. The company remains proudly independent, still owned by Tony Elliott four decades after he launched Time Out London. Written by local experts, and illustrated with original photography, our books also retain their independence. No business has been featured because it has advertised, and all restaurants and bars are visited and reviewed anonymously.
