Camara Oscura

The "Camara Oscura" is a nice quick tourist attraction located in the Old Sqaure where you will be presented with a 360 view of Old Havana using a periscope. The lady was very knowledgeable and professional in her explanations. We spent roughly 30 minutes there not more. Be ready to climb a few floors of stairs.

Interesting. And a professional gives guide gives a nice talk. Ymmv. An anachronism but hey only 5 such cameras left in the world. A plus is the nice view from the rooftop after your tour. Take your time. Stay a while for the view. Long walk up the stairs though.

Go to the top to see Havana for 2 CUC and see a cool show of area through a projected telescope.

Best view of the city! Nice tour also during the explanation of the cámara. Totally worth only 2 CUC pp. Say hi to the host (picture below).

A great place to visit! Worth the 2 cuc, a short and cool experience with an amazing view

It's totally worth the 2CUC donation to get to the top of the building. You can get a great 360 view of Old Havana. The little presentation they show you is about 10 minutes and somewhat informative. I recommend this for anyone looking for a rooftop overlook of Old Havana!

A must do in old Havana. The view on the rooftop ist breathtaking. The presentation about the telescope was thoughtfully given in two languages and it was very interesting. A live camera. Totally worth it

Cámara Oscura (or Darkroom) offers nice views of Habana Vieja and the Harbor. The primitive device is quite impressive. One of the more unique things you'll see anywhere -- well worth the visit.
