Baracoa, located on the northeastern coast of Cuba, is the country's oldest city, founded in 1511. This historic settlement was the first capital of Cuba and served as an important Spanish colonial outpost. The city is situated in a region known for its distinctive landscape, surrounded by mountains, rivers, and beaches.
The area's rich cultural heritage is influenced by its indigenous Taíno roots, Spanish colonial history, and African traditions. Baracoa's relative isolation until the construction of La Farola highway in 1964 helped preserve its unique customs, architecture, and culinary traditions, including its renowned chocolate production from locally grown cacao. The city maintains numerous colonial-era structures and fortifications, with the Matachín Fort now housing a municipal museum that showcases the region's history and culture.
