Cuba - Province of Oriente - Santiago De Cuba: Calle Ramados, the principal business Street of the second port city of Cuba
and Capitol of the Province. Many of the old buildings of Cuba's early days line this street but the shops and business houses
have adopted neon signs in a big way and here and there modern facade goes up on a "colonial" building. a few modern buildings
are replacing some of the older ones, and modern cars and buses crowd its narrow way. The narrow and often steep streets of
the city built by the Spaniards in 1514 have today been made one-way thoroughfares.
