Havana, an invitation

It is one invitation to discover the most bright and radiant capital of the Americas. In a resemblance to the Paris and New York of today, the Havana of the fifties laughed at the most seen places of the United States of the after war. There were the latest fashionable bars, the most luxury hotels, and an exuberant challenging architecture, in the oldest commercial place of the Caribbean. What's left from all that? The history is turning in 180 degrees after a period of fifty years, changing into vestiges the luxury city from before. It's an adaptation or a transformation all about? Despite the abandoned monuments, the atmosphere is intact. Havana Connaisseur presents, on the backside of the contemporary history and through many forms of current activities, what conforms the face of the Havana of today. Both a melancholic and cheerfulness mixture appears combined with epicurean pleasures. The Well being style of the Caribbean.
Old Havana has many sights and sounds to captivate the inquisitive traveller. These include Plaza de Armas  (the oldest square in Havana and the site of the city’s foundation), El Templete (the oldest neo-classical building in Havana),  La Catedral San Cristobal de la Habana and the Museo de la Revolucion. However for most visitors who join us on our Havana city tour it is the excitement of  being part of the commotion of daily street-life is the number one highlight. So, put your walking shoes on and  soak up the atmosphere of this lively, excitable city.

Cuba and IMF

 Answering the friend's questions 

Cuba does not have access to loans from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) due to the following reasons:

- Cuba is not a member of the IMF, the World Bank (WB), or the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).

- The Helms-Burton Act imposed by the United States prevents Cuba from joining these international financial institutions.

- The economic blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba also limits the country's access to international credits and financial transactions.

- This has forced foreign companies operating with Cuban banks to process their operations through intermediary banks, incurring additional costs.

- Foreign experts have advised the Cuban government on the possibility of Cuba joining the IMF, but the normalization of diplomatic relations with the United States and the removal of political conditions are necessary for this to happen.

In summary, the economic blockade imposed by the United States and Cuba's lack of membership in the main international financial institutions prevent it from accessing IMF loans at present.
