The 1928 tourist map of Havana, Cuba, is a fascinating glimpse into the city’s allure during the Roaring Twenties, a period when Havana was a vibrant destination for international travelers. This map, designed with visitors in mind, combines practical navigation with artistic illustrations, making it both a useful guide and a beautiful souvenir of the time.

The map offers a detailed layout of Havana’s streets, neighborhoods, and key attractions, all presented from a slightly elevated, bird’s-eye perspective. The city’s most famous landmarks are illustrated in a lively, pictorial style, making them easy to identify. El Capitolio, the grand domed building inspired by the U.S. Capitol, stands prominently in the center, symbolizing Havana’s blend of old-world charm and modern ambition. Nearby, the iconic Morro Castle guards the entrance to Havana Bay, while the Malecón, the city’s famed seaside promenade, stretches along the coastline, depicted with crashing waves and leisurely strollers.

Colorful illustrations capture the essence of 1920s Havana, showing bustling streets lined with palm trees, classic cars, and ornate Spanish colonial architecture. Key tourist spots like the Hotel Nacional, Grand Teatro de La Habana, and Parque Central are highlighted, emphasizing the city’s reputation as a glamorous vacation spot for wealthy American and European tourists.

The map is filled with charming details that reflect the era’s artistic style, including decorative compass roses, elegant cartouches, and hand-drawn icons for churches, parks, and markets. Labels and street names are rendered in vintage typography, with a mix of elegant cursive and bold block letters that evoke the spirit of the Jazz Age.
