Havana, Cuba - The Entrance to the Harbour (1947): A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures the entrance to Havana Harbour in Cuba, as it appeared in 1947. The image transports us back in time to the 1940s, a decade marked by significant historical events and cultural shifts. At the heart of the scene, the harbour mouth stretches out to meet the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. The entrance is guarded by a grand lighthouse, its beacon piercing the sky, guiding ships safely into the port. The fort, a testament to Havana's rich history, stands proudly on the left, its cannons pointing out to sea. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique charm and character of Havana during a bygone era. The city, known for its vibrant culture, colorful architecture, and rich history, is reflected in the calm waters of the harbour. The image invites us to imagine the hustle and bustle of the bustling port, the sounds of the sea, and the daily life of the people who called this place home. The photograph is a reminder of the enduring allure of Havana, a city that continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. It invites us to explore the stories of the past and to appreciate the beauty and history that lies within its walls.
