Name of Shop: Official marketplaces
Those markets we visited during our cycling trip in Habana and Camague - estonished about the way Cuban people has to survive. There is a so called "Bodega" - where the locals can buy the basics with the gouvernment tickets.Mainly rice and milk for the children. Than the gouvernment market - empty racks and than the US dollar market - a lot of choice - but payable in US dollars - so a lot of Cubans can not afford the basics like we know it
What To Buy: Fruit - vegtables and meat !!
What To Pay: Us dollars - above average for the Cubans - so every dollar from the tourist is welcome !!

Name of Shop: Manzana de Gomez
Previous golden shopping center - but actually a ruin of forgotten glory. A few shops selling clothing and books.The shops and building get to be renovated. This area is even dangerous for tourists ! But local police is near - like everywhere in Habana !!
What To Buy: Nothing !!!!!!!! Go to calle Obispo - near bye!
