Fábrica de Tabacos Constantino Pérez Carrodegua

Santa Clara's main tobacco factory produces some of the best cigars in the country and can be toured at a leisurely pace. The nearby shop sells the wares of the production line, as well as rums and other products.

Shopping

Most visitors to Cuba look for two things when shopping: rum and cigars. And while you can find them in droves (and always of the highest quality), there is more to be found. Cuban handicrafts and artworks are top-notch, and you can also find pretty unique tomes at some of the city's bookstores. The main shopping artery is a pedestrianized stretch of Calle Independencia, nicknamed the 'Boulevard'.
