Shopping

Since the early 16th century, Havana’s harbour has been a centre for trade and shipping. Installations mushroomed as the harbour’s commercial activities grew. Today, these former establishments are being restored and refurbished as part of the City Historian’s Office transformation efforts of the historical quarter of Old Havana. In 2009, the famous open-air crafts market near the Plaza de la Catedral in Old Havana was relocated to the former Almacenes de San José on the Port of Havana. This harbourside warehouse was built in 1885 and is considered the oldest depository in Old Havana.

For veggies and fruits you need an Agro Mercado (Agro market), similar to a farmer's market. There are some at Vedado. For example: Street 19 between B and C ; Street 17 between F and G and Street 17 and K.. Buying anything at an agromercado is a way easier if you have a Cuban with you.
