Cienfuegos Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels
city in Cuba, capital of Cienfuegos Province
About Cienfuegos
Cienfuegos is the only city in Cuba that was founded by the French. As a result, it feels a little different than other Cuban cities, with wider streets. There are two main areas of interest to tourists;Pueblo Nuevo, the city centre; andPunta Gorda, a peninsula with lots of 1950s homes. It's a nice place to visit for a day or two, but after that, you might run out of things to do.
