To learn more of a country's history it is best to visit it's museums, because this way you can get more in touch with the facts, objects and people of a certain country. In the Museo de la Revolucion we had this experience. It is well known that Cuba's relationship with the US has always been complicated. In this museum we had a better understanding of the facts and the events that formed the country's and city's history.

Although I advise you that for an accurate understanding and if you're really keen to learn more about Havana's and Cuba's background, you should spend about 2-3 hours in the museum, because otherwise you will come out of the building with not more knowledge than you entered. :)

On June 6 1762, Cuba was taken over by the British during the Seven Year War. This change in power led to a change in the products flowing in and out because now Cuba was able to trade with the rest of the Caribbean and North America which were also ruled by the British Crown. This led way to the introduction of different foods, goods and animals onto the island. As the war came to a close [...]
