Vedado is the commercial core and the main residential district of Havana, Cuba. It is one of the areas of Havana with a great North American environment. It has a small complex of skyscrapers, inspired by the Art Deco buildings of New York and Miami, a good example of which is the López Serran Building. In the historic "Hotel Nacional" there was a huge casino, pure Las Vegas style and other hotels and places in the area were controlled by powerful gangsters; all this changed in 1959, when Fidel Castro entered, with his army of revolutionaries and installed himself in the Hotel Havana Hilton, renamed the Hotel Habana Libre.
Around 175,000 inhabitants currently live in Vedado and has quiet residential areas, numerous theaters, restaurants, paladares, Cuban restaurants, bars and an excellent nightlife. The district is divided in two by the avenue Avenida de Los Presidentes and is home to beautiful parks and Avenida 23.
Some mandatory stops in this district are the giant Revolution Square with the Monument in honor of José Martí, the Napoleonic Museum, the University of Havana and the Necropolis of Christopher Columbus. The Malecón of Havana extends above all in this neighborhood, another destination for visits.
It is interesting to know that, on alternate Saturdays, in via n. 4 (calle Calzada and Línea) are celebrated on Saturdays of Rumba, with performances of music and dance created by the Folklórico Nacional complex. The shows are very educational, as they mix Afro Cuban rhythms with religious representations and jokes that explain the executions step by step.

The open space at El Cocinero This is one of the big “ups” of the last months in Havana. El Cocinero is a cool and trendy bar located in Vedado in the building close to the iron bridge with the big chimney. The space is totally open, which may present a problem during the rainy season, but the owners are planning to open another dining space in a closed area on the premises. One can have a full meal at El Cocinero, but the place is better for tapas and drinks. Don’t miss it!
