Díaz-Canel celebrated the luck of living in Havana, a city which he described as “magical” and “charming”, even in the most difficult times and wished its inhabitants a good anniversary. Government officials and cultural institutions carry out various activities in the day of remembrance of the foundation of San Cristóbal de La Habana,under a ceiba tree, on November 16th, 1509. The inauguration of social works are expected to be carried out as a result of the patrimonial rehabilitation of the city and the traditional walk-around the ceiba tree in El Templete, a yearly tradition that the inhabitants and foreigners follow hoping for good luck. The oldest area of the capital of Cuba was declared a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization in 1982, and also won the title of Wonder City of the Modern World in 2016.
