Come here for concerts, the Ballet Nacional de Cuba and teatre. Functions are held irregularly. Beware of scams as ushers try to sell you the same ticket for up to ~US$25 shortly before the function starts (and only paying the nationals price). Instead go to the box office to get it for the official price.

Huge square dominated by a statue and monument of Jose Marti and the iconic image of Che Guevara adorning the Ministry of the Interior. Arrive either early or late, as it is often swamped by tourists and gets very hot during the day.
Cementerio de Cristóbal Colón
One of the great historical cemeteries of the world, important in both historical and architectural terms. It's not possible to see much from behind the fence.
Parque Lennon
Features the only statue of a western musician in Havana. Notable for the regularly stolen (and replaced) eyeglasses.
The hotel housed Castro's soldiers for several days after they took Havana. It has an excellent selection of photos in the lobby along with one of the only 24-hr fast food restaurants in the city.
