Great Museums Of Havana: Curious About Cuba

Season 1, Episode 2 of 2

GREAT MUSEUMS OF HAVANA: CURIOUS ABOUT CUBA takes public television fans to a world largely unseen by U.S. viewers. Museums abound in Havana amid 500 years of architectural history. There are museums devoted to cigars, cars, rum and revolution, but that's not all. Be prepared for a stunning presentation of Cuban Art through the centuries at the National Museum of Fine Arts; a spellbinding exploration of Ernest Hemingway's life at the Hemingway House Museum, Finca Vigia, his home from 1940 to 1960; and a revealing insider's tour of the on-going restoration of the colonial district, Old Havana City, a "living museum without walls" and a UNESCO "World Heritage Site" since 1982.
