HAVANA 1950 will take you to the Havana of the 1950s, when it was known as the “Monte Carlo of the Americas”, where the most influential culture, art, music, casinos and resorts were in Havana at the time, making it the world’s favourite destination for the rich and famous.
Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea,” the pinnacle of American literature and winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, was also written in Havana during the 1950s.
Why did Havana in the 1950s attract so many people? It was not only because of Havana’s warm climate and the beautiful Caribbean ocean but because Havana in the 1950s had a unique aura and magic… where people of all races, beliefs, values, and talents came to enjoy “La Dolce Vita”.
