Plaza del Higue

The small Cuban city of Trinidad is a quiet and peaceful city with cobbled streets and old houses built in colonial Spanish style. From passing two-wheeled carts, horse-drawn and retro cars, blows of the past century. This cozy patriarchal town was founded in the early 16th century.

In the center of the city between the old houses is a small square del Higue.

The main attractions of this square are the ancient fig tree - the same age as the city and the commemorative cross. The place where the cross is placed symbolizes the beginning of the first service conducted by the first priest of the city of Bartolomeo de Las Cas in 1514.

Arriving in Trinidad, travelers plunge into the era of the thirties of the last century.
