Paseo del Prado, Habana Vieja

Paseo del Prado

The Paseo del Prado is an avenue in Havana. On its north-south route it is located in the busy area of ​​Old Havana and just one block from Calle Industria, which marks the border with Centro Habana, extends from the Fountain of India and the Plaza de la Fraternidad to Malecón.

It was built in 1772 under the colonial government of the Marquis de la Torre, Captain General of the island, which at the time was one of the most flourishing Spanish colonies in America. His first name was that of Alameda de Extramuros or Isabel II, for being outside the great walls that surrounded the city.

In 1928 the French landscape architect Jean-Claude Nicolas Forestier redesigned the avenue to make it one of the most important walks in Havana and Latin America. It was planted with trees and marble benches were placed. Eight statues were placed with figures of lions, made of bronze that seem to guard the walk. It is divided into four well-defined fundamental sections: the Paseo, the Central Park, the Capitol Esplanade and the Plaza or Park of the Fraternity.
