Museum
The best of the colonial art museum is the Palace of the Captains-General, where Spanish governors once lived. The Casa de Africa presents another aspect of Cuba 's history: an impressive collection of Afro-Cuban religious artifacts.
The Museum Nacional de Bellas Artes containing works by Rubens, Goya and Velazquez, Other museums the Casa de los Arabes and the Casa de Asia with Middle and Far Eastern collections. And as many of these small "boutique" museums are in elegant old Spanish houses with airy courtyards, it's often worth the price of admission - usually CUC$ 3.

The Museo de Finanzas is more than an empty vault where dictator Fulgencio Batista once stashed his loot. A few old bank-notes are displayed on the walls. Havana's Deposito de Automovil is in a way redundant, since the city streets are already an automobile museum, full of old American cars, but this museum has an impressive collection of vehicles dating back to a 1905 Cadillac.

There's also a Rolls-Royce, which belonged to Batista, near the sleek 1960 Chevrolet that Che Guevara drove. There's nothing like the Museo de la Revolucion. Housed in the former Presidential Palace, its displays and documents outline Cuba 's history from the beginning of the "neo-colonial period".

Today the stately theatre one of the oldest in the New World the glories of its rich history: Caruso sang there, Pavlova danced, Bernhardt acted. The building's principal theatre is the Sala Garcia Lorca, an intimate 1500 seat auditorium with five balconies and good acoustics.

Remarkably, the Gran Teatro was once the most technologically advanced in the world, thanks to an Italian scientist named Antonio Meucci. Some say the experiments of this eccentric inventor who arrived in Havana in year 1835 produced electrical lighting effects and an internal telephone system long before Edison or Bell.

Meucci's ingenious spirit lives on in the theatre. The theatre is home to Cuba 's esteemed Ballet Nacional. Created in 1948, it's still directed by its founding prima ballerina, Alicia Alonso soul of National Ballet.
