Directions

Little Havana is Miami’s iconic hub of Cuban-American culture, centered along the bustling corridor of Calle Ocho. Visitors can immerse themselves in live Latin music, vibrant murals, hand-rolled cigars, and lively domino matches at Domino Park. The neighborhood offers authentic Cuban dining, historic landmarks, and walk-up ventanitas serving fresh coffee and pastries.

History

Little Havana emerged in the 1960s as a hub for Cuban immigrants, transforming the area into a cultural epicenter. The neighborhood's name pays homage to Havana, the capital of Cuba, and it has since become a symbol of Cuban heritage in the United States.
