Holguin Cuba

The fourth-largest city in the nation offers a genuine taste of regional Cuba, without any frills. Although the city of San Isidoro de Holguín is not prominently featured in Cuba's tourism blueprint, it holds a certain charm and intrigue for a specific kind of traveler. The city is teeming with gleaming vintage Chevys, squares bustling with uniform-clad school children sharing wi-fi, and interactions that are not tainted by haste or commerce. Use it as a lens to view life in the hinterland: from the religious solemnity of the annual procession ascending Loma de la Cruz to the enthusiastic cheers emanating from the massive baseball stadium.
