Things to Do in Vedado – Malecón, Havana

Havana's broad-avenue modern quarter, descending from leafy Vedado to the seawall along the Straits of Florida. The Hotel Nacional, University of Havana, and mid-century towers mark its 20th-century ambitions, while fishermen, musicians, and sunset crowds on the Malecón turn the edge of the neighborhood into the city's longest public living room.
