Santiago de Cuba Cuba

It is the main city of the province with the same name. It is one of the seven villages founded by Diego Velázquez in the first moments of the conquest and Spanish colonization of the island of Cuba. From 1515 is the capital to the middle of the 16th century. The historic urban center was declared National Monument on 10 October 1978. It is said that is “the most Caribbean city of Cuba”. The main places to see in Santiago de Cuba are: -Castle of San Pedro de la Roca: declared Human Heritage by the UNESCO in 1997, which is the most complete and best preserved example of the Hispanic American military arquitecture, basically based in Italian and renacentist design. -Sanctuary of la Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre: it was declared Patrona de Cuba in 1916 and crowned by the Pope John Paul II during his visit to Cuba in 1998. The appearance of the Virgin de la Caridad is one of the legends of this city. The current sanctuary where there is a mass every morning is from 1927 and has a plate altar and other ornamental objects of big value. Below the cabin of the Virgin is situated the Miracle’s Chapel, a little enclosure where the believers deposit different compliment, with different values. -The Big Stone: treasure of the east Cuba. It is a big stone situated almost 1000 meters above sea level, witness of the volcanism of Paleógeno.
