Things to do in Havana in April

1

Old Havana (Habana Vieja)

A UNESCO-listed colonial core of restored plazas and crumbling facades side by side — the contrast is part of Havana's character, not something being fully polished away.

2

Malecón Seafront

An 8km seawall promenade where Habaneros gather every evening — no single attraction, but the place to feel the city's actual rhythm away from museum visits.

3

Classic Convertible Car Tour

Havana's fleet of 1950s American cars, kept running through decades of improvisation, double as taxis and tour vehicles — an open-top ride along the Malecón is a genuine Havana rite of passage.

4

Plaza de la Catedral

A baroque square built around Havana's cathedral, its uneven paving stones giving it a distinctive texture — ringed by restaurants and small art galleries.

5

Fábrica de Arte Cubano

A former cooking-oil factory converted into an experimental art, music, and nightlife space — one ticket covers multiple galleries, bars, and live performance areas inside.

6

El Capitolio

Havana's answer to the US Capitol, built just before it and briefly the tallest building in Cuba — recently restored and open for interior tours.
