Habana Vieja was founded by the Spanish in 1519. It became a stopping point for the treasure laden Spanish Galleons on the crossing between the New World and the Old World. In the 17th century it was one of the main ship-building centers. The city was built in baroque and neoclassic style. The narrow streets of Old Havana contain many buildings, accounting for perhaps as many as one-third of the approximately 3,000 buildings found in Habana Vieja. It is the ancient city built around the port of Havana at Havana Bay. Read more from Wikipedia.
