Boulevard, Playa Pesquero, Cuba, 2019[open in full screen]  

 
  Previous Plaza Mayor, Trinidad, Cuba

This so called Boulevard is located in Playa Pesquero resort near Holgun. As with many other similar large resorts, with 1000 rooms and gravitational pool of up to 3000 guests, it is having same significance and importance as any social square in smaller town anywhere in the world.

  It is of course totally pedestrian but it still has access, for older guests or just those afraid of extreme temperatures and exposure to the sun, by the electric powered carts.

Location between pool and wonderful beach are making it even more attractive.

  Trattoria, sport pub called Beer Garden, three stores with souvenirs, beach essentials and of course rum and famous Cuban cigars and small grill are also located here. Band stand with old fashioned mechanical pipe organ [vergl] is completing picture of this very popular space.
