Rafael Trejo Boxing Gym in Havana is one of the most famous boxing gyms in the world. A lot of gold medalists have came out of this particular gym. I have herd stories about this place since I was a kid, it was great finally getting to see it in person and actually getting to talk to some of the boxers.
I spoke to lots of them and their passion and devotion for the sport is contagious. At one point I wanted to put on some gloves and start training.

As I walked the streets I met loads of people, but this lady was particularly special. I asked her if I could take her picture and she said “of-course”. She then asked me where I was from and what I was doing, sending me off with lots of great wishes thanking me for taking her photograph.

Im sure you have seen her many times on pictures all over the internet. She is amazing and is one of the most photographed people in Havana. I finally found her and got a chance to take her picture. She is extremely photogenic.

Here is one of the National Capitol Building in Havana Cuba. In Spanish is called El Capitolio. It is large in scale and beautiful to the eye. On this particular photo you can see it at the very back. First you see the Inglaterra Hotel, then the Gran Theater, then El Capitolio.

Gran Teatro de la Havana is quite incredible (Grand Theater La Havana). This place is jaw dropping. I have been to lots and lots of theaters around the world, but let me tell you, this one is jaw dropping. It is so beautiful and exquisite and the attention to detail in is second to none. A must visit when in Havana Cuba.
