CUBA: EXPLORING the beautiful ARTS & CRAFTS MARKET in HAVANA, what to buy ????️
SUBSCRIBE: - For years, Havana artisans had their center of exhibition and sale at the open-air Cathedral Square, but since November 2009, with the completion of the renovation and restoration of the old San Jose warehouses on Port Avenue, they now have a place protected from sunlight and rain to exhibit and market their crafts.
The warehouses, built in 1885 with the latest technology of the time, and have become a permanent cultural fair that also includes theatrical and music presentations.
Cuba is a Caribbean island nation under communist rule. It has sugar-white beaches and is dotted with tobacco fields, which play a part in the production of the country's legendary cigars. The capital, Havana, is lined with pastel houses, 1950s-era cars and Spanish-colonial architecture in the 16th-century core, Old Havana. Salsa music plays in the dance clubs and cabaret shows are performed at the famed Tropicana.

Havana. Souvenir from Havana (San Jose Market) - Cuba. 2016
Сувенирный рынок в Гаване является одним из самых привлекательных мест для туристов. Он находится недалеко от Святого Франциска, на набережной, и расположен в старых складах Сан-Хосе.
На рынке огромное количество сувениров на любой вкус: знаменитые кубинские сигары и ром, бижутерия картины, стоимость которых здесь значительно ниже, чем в галереях и магазинах города. На рынке можно и нужно торговаться, после обеда цены также снижаются.
Souvenir market in Havana is one of the most attractive places for the many guests of the Cuban capital. It is close to St. Francis, on the waterfront, and is a spacious enclosed structure in which once housed warehouses of San Jose.
The market is an impressive number and variety of gifts for every taste: from the famous Cuban cigars and rum to the sophisticated works of art handmade, from cheap costume jewelry to beautiful paintings of a famous Cuban authors.
And the cost of the paintings here are significantly lower than in the galleries and shops of the town. To be traded on the market - a good sign, after lunch prices are also reduced. Near the market is a bus stop.

Great Artisinal Shop In Central Havana
Check out more videos and pics of Havana at
Or, download my complete Real Havana guide-book at
This is an artisinal shop located in Central Havana. In many ways, these shops are like flea markets, where locals gather to sell goods, repair small items and offer services. In the past the government was the only entity allowed to offer these services. Currently, due to economic reforms, small business is being given more freedom.
For the average foreigner shopping in one of these artisinal markets will not likely be very impressive. However, it is very interesting to see the dynamics of a growing capitalist movement and the fact that even with a mediocre offering of goods and services, locals flock to these new markets and are eager to see the variety of goods.
