    Tips

    At Plaza Vieja on the northeast corner is the Camera Obscura on the roof of Villa Gomez at a height of almost 40m. After an ascent on foot or by lift, you are presented with a concave parabolic dish that is based on an invention by Leonardo da Vinci. In the darkened room you can now take a 360 degree virtual tour of Havana in real time (with an explanation from the staff). The architectural highlights of the city are also brought closer via a control of the lens. The camera was donated to the city of Havana in 2002 by the province of Cadiz / Spain. Absolutely worth seeing!
