Top Things to do in Holguin, Cuba

- When Christopher Columbus landed in Holguin Cuba in 1492, he declared it “the most beautiful land human eyes had ever seen” I think he was on to something, the beaches are a dream, the people are warm and friendly, and the sunsets alone make you wish you could stay a few more days. And did I mention the mangos?! They smell so fresh and sweet.
You have to experience the Holguin province and when you do check out these top things:
1. Downtown Holguin - known as the city of parks. They are squares and meeting places for the locals. The best way to go from park to park is by bici taxis. Be sure to see Parque Calixto Garcia where you can visit a local museum Casa Consistorial. Sharing the roads with classic cars is pretty incredible.
2. Next head a bit outside of town to meet Vichi, a farmer who’s father and grandfather passed on the tradition of making a stable of Cuban cuisine Cassava bread which comes from the root of the Cassava plant.
3. Check out some of the artists who call Holguin home. Luis Silva is a local artist who collects scrap metal from closed down factories and sugar mills to make his art. His installations appear throughout Cuba especially at hotels and galleries in Holguin.
At Cuadernos Papiro you’ll meet Boris who’s passion is making beautiful paper from recycled scraps. One of my favorite stops was at the Fabrica de Organo, the only mechanical organ factory in Cuba and Latin America. The organs were an attraction at carnivals and large events all over Cuba. There you’ll Antonio Enrique who has been playing the organ for the last 40 years. The Neon Theater is another must see.
4. A short 45 minute drive will get you to Gibara. A pretty special place right by the sea. Fishermen use only their hands and nets to fish.

Cuba & her people are beautiful.
I have been to Cuba 15 times with my wife and family...we stay in Guardalavaca....and always visit Holguin...have many friends there....love the country AND the people
I was born in Holguin and I can tell you that there is no other city most beautiful than this, full of culture and amazing people.

+Rocio Almeida go to Gibara, or any of the city's restaurants 😉
Karla Herrera agreed I gave a little kid a tootsie pop and the kid was so appreciative, nice people and beautiful place to visit one of my favourite vacations ever!
My husband and I just came back from Holguin. We fell in love with it since our first visit in 2019.
Love it!! We have been once to Holguin and we are heading back in a week! We are going to definitely check out the neon theater and a few of the things that you pointed out in this video, Cuba is such a beautiful place with beautiful people! Thanks for posting this wonderful video!
One the most kind and beautiful countries I’ve ever been in and Holguín was where I stayed
As a native Holguinera myself is interesting finding these videos since they show the city I grew up in such a different light. Obviously it's beautiful and full of history but as someone who was raised there, it seems so weird to me for someone to be so amazed by it. I guess when you live there for so long the beauty fades away and all the cracks seep through. I'm visiting my family there soon and I hope that after 4 years away I can find this beauty once again.
You will Alicia
Did you find that beauty again it’s been 3 years
Very creative people
100% the weather.. situation. views ..and the Natural same in my Country Indonesia..I would like to go there..
I went on a day trip to Holgiun I learned a lot talking to locals,After Cuban missile crises.usa sprayed all Cubans vegetation hoping to cause a famine,then proceeded to gas Havana including many other city's, causing major health issues etc,Canada sent 1 ship full of humanitarian aid to Cuba,Then Usa Navy would intercept Canadian ship escorted to Miami, fined everday while in port.Canada would send 2 more ships,same thing would happen,,Canada would then send 3 more ships to our Cuban brothers and sisters,,Cubans are highly resilient people,tough as nails,they kicked the shit outta Spain after 400 yrs of slavery got there freedom.....I have great respect for Cuban people,love from your Canadian brother. ......
Next time you should visit the place where Christopher Columbus landed in Holguin Cuba, 1492. WE like you visit us in Cayo Bariay.
Been going to Cuba for vacations for 23 yrs but my next trip in a month will be my first to Holguin. ||Looking very forward to it.
je devais être moi aussi à Holguin en ce moment même mais ce putain de coronovirus en a décidé autrement. sitôt que les frontières seront ré-ouvertes ( 6 mois? 1 an? 2 ans?), j'y serai. ma casa particular est déjà réservée près du parque central.hasta la vista.
Wow! Amazing Video,I really like it :) Thank's for you visit us,I am Cuban Boy,from Holguin City but now I live in Germany.
I love to Travel to Holguin.
Very good job,I love ❤️
1999 Holguin chez des amis une semaine incroyable! cela me fait plaisir de revoir la place et le village avec plus de20 ans d'écart.
Love this Emily. Taking notes for my trip later this year!
Great to visit for sure
I Love Cassava guys God Bless done ❤️❤️❤️
I saw the place where Christopher Columbus landed I got to go there on a jeep safari it was amazing
Bella Ciudad
Mi querida isla .como te extraño...mi ciudad holguin te amo
wow! what a beautiful country
Ricardo Ramirez Holguin is not a country
Ricardo’s English is better than yours on this point. One of the well-established meanings of ‘country’ is ‘landscape, terrain’, as in the phrases ‘hill country’ and ‘bandit country’.
Me encanto, tremendo vudeo, hacías.
BEAUTIFUL Emily.
Fantastic video! How did you get so many views on your video? I've visited Cuba in January before lockdown and its an amazing country!
So pretty beautiful your video
Your channel is so good! Were you in the Lake District, UK last year? I think I met you and your boss.
I would like to get that at least ten times !
NORM KUNESH hello dear merry Christmas 🎄 sharing for my video ❤️❤️❤️
What a beautiful video! Gibara is my hometown ❤
I'm a long time visitor at Don Lino in Playa Blanca. I need to go spend some time in Holguin, don't I?
John in Québec
I have to say I used to go often to Holguin and I loved it, but Gibara, I can't explain Gibara, so magical, so mystic.. paralyzed in time. I'll be back again one day, and play to guess the secrets of its old walls, and get to smell the ocean , while listening to the kids playing every sunset by the seashore. Sometimes I tell my daughter that I will take her there so she can find a pirate's treasure.. Even though I've tried, I can't remember the house or the good family that hosted me those days, but those pure memories by the coast, I will remember for ever.
Love the magic of Gibará

Can anybody help me out? I’m just wondering if I vacation to Holguin and stay at a resort, would there be a bus that takes you into town, similar to Varadero resorts?
Where is the best place to buy mangos in the area? I'll be staying at the Sol Rio de Luna y Mares resort. Are there farms in the area?

You can edit posts on you tube if you need to after you post something.
you just have the guy 6 dollars for the bicycle ride around town. Idk if you were being nice, that's the actual price that he was charging, or you got scammed by him because those 6 dollars are 150 pesos for him.
Its not G-bara its He-bara
Christopher Columbus did not land in Holguin unless he came on a airplane. Holguin in nowhere near the ocean.
Ric Cohen
He landed on the coast of Holguín province, not Holguín city! ¡Por supuesto!
it is too expensive to pay 6 dollars to bicitaxi's guy. just 2 o 3 dollars is enough
Wow what a beautiful girl!
I think i just felt in love
Will you marry me?
😄
6$ for a national is a rip off hahah
got riped off for the bicycle ride.
This is where I was born..but this is not everything that holguin is
Asi que basicamente no hay ni pinga que hacer en Holguin
That's an annoying edit of a probably wonderful trip!
This video shows how not to edit if you want to keep the attention of and to please the audience.
If you suffer from epilepsy, don't watch the video!
