Cienfuegos, the Pearl of the South
Hotel Encanto Palacio Azul (painted powder blue) in Punta Gorda, originally built in 1921 by an architect Alfredo Fontana to be a private residence of a wealthy tobacco baron. In 2004 was the neo-classical water-front mansion, capped by a Mughal-style domed turret, renovated into a lovely, colonial style hotel.
