Fodor's Expert Review Museo de la Danza

Vedado
This interesting and well laid-out museum explores Cuba's relationship with dance, specifically ballet. It focuses mainly on the history of ballet from the 18th century onward, but also has smaller exhibits looking at contemporary dance, as well as Spanish flamenco. Look out for the ballet shoes signed by Margot Fonteyn. The last two rooms focus on Cuba's national ballet, as well as its director, choreographer, and prima ballerina Alicia Alonso, who is now in her nineties.
