It's controversial. It should be charming, as Europe is, with its old buildings, narrow streets.

But in Cuba case, though still Havana could be a nice city, the decaying buildings and old cars is a sign of strong poverty (did you meet any male or female young who sale themselves for a piece of cake or a jean?)
