📣 Traveler notes
Cuba is a large Caribbean island featuring nine World Heritage Sites, notable beaches, colonial architecture, and a distinct cultural history. The country has maintained a communist government since the Cuban Revolution of 1959 and operates under a US embargo.
- January 1: Triumph of the Revolution
- January 2: Victory of the Armed Forces Day

- Though Cubans are generally friendly, avoid political discussions to maintain local comfort. Using Spanish and supporting private businesses (e.g., *casas particulares* or *paladares*) enhances cultural engagement.
