____________________________________________________
Matanzas is the capital of the Cuban province of Matanzas. Known for its poets, culture, and Afro-Cuban folklore, it is located on the northern shore of the island of Cuba, on the Bay of Matanzas, 90 kilometres east of the capital Havana and 32 kilometres west of Varadero.
Matanzas is called the City of Bridges, for the seventeen bridges that cross the three rivers that traverse the city (Rio Yumuri, San Juan, and Canimar). For this reason it was referred to as the "Venice of Cuba."
Matanzas is known as the birthplace of the music and dance traditions danzón and rumba.
Come and visit!

We have been through Matanzas but never stopped and looked around. Thank you for the tour, our next trip we will stop and look around. Appears interesting place to tour.

I own a house in Matanza. I am Canadian and she is Cuban. Matanza is an absolute horror story after the pandemic. I do not reccomend going here at all
