The Malecón de La Habana

The Malecón de La Habana is both a road and a sea wall running eight kilometres along Havana's coast between the river mouth in Havana Harbour and Vadado. Along the road are monuments to General Maximo Gomez, Generl Calixto Garcia and Antonio Maceo, as well as some notable buildings.

There are hundreds of memorable photos from this stretch of road, showing the old, yet colourful buildings on one side of the road and the open sea on the other – Wim Wenders has taken some crakers.
