A hotel and its swimming pool are the focus of this view of Cienfuegos, the port city on Cuba's southern coast. Founded in 1819 by French colonists, Cienfuegos is known for its grid of streets and neoclassical buildings, and its historic center was named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2005. The picture is dated around 1964, a few years after the revolution reshaped Cuba's tourism industry, and it offers a glimpse of leisure in a provincial city during that period of change.
