Santa Clara: Overview

Ringed by low hills and located within easy reach of Habana on the Autopista Nacional, Santa Clara is a young university city with a lively and bustling central park. Most travelers come here to check out the Che sights but, for those who linger longer, a diverse and surprisingly colorful cultural scene awaits discovery.
