Girl acting at Club Tropical
Also known as the House of DJs, and as one of the first karaoke bars in Havana, and although it’s nothing fancy, it’s frequented by all kinds of people who come to have a good time.
There are no live performances here, but the Djs get people moving, and often have cool visuals to go along with their music.

"El Diablo Tun Tun", piano bar and pub
This establishment is part of the Casa de la Musica in Miramar, on the top floor and accesible by a steep ladder. It’s a great place to grab a drink, listen to live music and dance (as long as the place isn’t packed with people). There are also local DJs who sometimes spin here, and they’re always appreciated by local and international visitors.

Dos Gardenias, the home of Bolero.
It is still a matter of debate whether the bolero, that romantic music genre, was born in Cuba or Mexico, though for me it is clear- Cuba.
Many Cuban composers have known world-wide success with the bolero, and even into the 21st century, the bolero is still going strong, setting hearts racing and bringing old memories to life.
