La Cueva

La cueva is a strong runner up for the coolest place I’ve ever been in my life. Here we are in this sleepy but very tranquil Cuban colonial town where the most exciting thing that seems to happen is the opportunity to pull the broom out and sweep the house, yet again. We made our way up this hill past a gorgeous crumbling church and hear this music coming from the entrance to this club. La Cueva is an underground discotheque housed inside a natural limestone cave in the heart of a mountain. This main room/chamber must have been at least 3 to 4 stories tall, packed tight with locals getting their dance on. Just amazing.
