Paseo del Prado
The Paseo del Prado is one of the prettiest main streets in the old part of the city. It begins at the Central Park Hotel and leads down to the seafront known as the Malecon, which gives this avenue its reputation. A wide walkway lined with trees and stone benches bisects the street, while on either side you can see the columns and arches of the mostly residential neocolonial balcony buildings, painted in a whole host of colors.
