   Casa Templo de Santería Yemayá

   • Trinidad, Cuba
   • Sights › Museum, landmark

   No Santería museum can replicate the ethereal spiritual experience of Regla de Ocha (Cuba's main religion of African origin), though this house has a try. Containing a Santería altar to Yemayá, Goddess of the Sea, with myriad offerings of fruit, water and stones, the house is presided over by santeros (priests of the Afro-Cuban religion Santería), who'll emerge from the back patio and surprise you with some well-rehearsed tourist spiel. On the godddess's anniversary, March 19, ceremonies are performed day and night.
