Why go
Begin around Parque Central with Hotel Inglaterra and the Gran Teatro, then move toward El Capitolio and the Art Deco Bacardi Building. Continue to the National Museum of Fine Arts and Museum of the Revolution, choosing one substantial museum rather than rushing both. Paseo del Prado and nearby squares keep the route legible. The route suits architecture and history interests, but museum hours and interior access should be confirmed before setting priorities.
Useful to know
- Choose one major museum for a full visit and treat the other as optional.
- Use Prado and Parque Central as the walking spine between stops.
