Most travellers to Cuba skip Camag\u00fcey on their way to Santiago or Baracoa in the far east of the island. But think again. This beautiful city of churches, colonial homes and winding streets full of art studios and galleries is definitely worth a visit. And, its historic core \u2013 founded in 1514 by the conquering Spaniards \u2013 is a Unesco-protected world heritage site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pirates are to blame for the city\u2019s layout \u2013 a warren of twisting colonial streets laid out in 1528. In fact, the pirates, including Welsh buccaneer Henry Morgan, were so pesky, the city has been relocated twice \u2013 once from the coast and twice inland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll want to soak up all the history first. Start at Agramonte Park dominated by an equestrian statue of Ignacio Agramonte, a hero of the fight for independence from Spain. Here you\u2019ll find the pretty Casa de la Trova where you can hear live music, and the 18th<\/sup>-century cathedral. Nearby at the Workers\u2019 Square is Agramonte\u2019s birthplace and the impressive Our Lady of Mercy Church, also dating from the 18th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, amble about the city\u2019s streets towards its plazas. Think enormous coloured mansions, huge doors and entrances, bronze knockers, and patios hidden behind these wooden gateways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plaza del Carmen is known for Our Lady of Carmen baroque-style church with two towers and its neighbouring Ursuline Convent. The pedestrianised square is dotted with tinajones<\/em>, bulky terracotta jugs used to once collect rainwater, and the sculptures of locals by ceramicist Martha Jim\u00e9nez whose studio is on the square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n
\n
\"The<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Exceptionally pretty San Juan de Dios Square is filled with colourful colonial buildings as well as the 17th<\/sup>-century church and old hospital of San Juan de Dios. The remains of Ignacio Agramonte are buried here. Find artist studios including that of multi-media sculptor Magdiel Garc\u00eda Almanza and leather artist Jos\u00e9 \u2018Pepe\u2019 Guti\u00e9rrez, and the studio \u2018Gato Azul\u2019 belonging to artists Ileana S\u00e1nchez and Joel Jover. Track down the talented ceramicist Oscar Rodr\u00edguez Lasseria, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More into dance than art? Don\u2019t miss performances by the Ballet de Camag\u00fcey, the second largest ballet troupe in Cuba after Havana plus performances by the Ballet Contempor\u00e1neo de Camag\u00fcey, and the city\u2019s Ballet Folkl\u00f3rico. The latter organizes the dance event Festival Olorum each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If curiosities are your thing don\u2019t miss the quirky railway museum \u2013 Museo Parque Tem\u00e1tico Ferroviario \u2013 which features restored furniture, uniforms, recreated offices of the railway bosses, and the restored \u2018Watch Inspection\u2019 room, a time-keeping unit where staff would keep accurate time and inform their colleagues. The policy was introduced following a disastrous railway accident in the US when a behind-time watch caused a collision. The tradition is more than 130 years\u2019 old!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
