As Cuba becomes a hotter travel destination, Rihanna and Childish Gambino (aka: Donald Glover) also visited there to film a secret project. In her recent Instagram post, @badgalriri showed some dance moves to Childish Gambino’s new song, “Summertime Magic” in the famous Plaza de la Catedral.

In case you’re also heading to Havana, Plaza de la Catedral isn’t to be missed. Here are just a few reasons why:

1. It’s one of the five main squares in Old Havana. Its name comes from the major landmark that is situated in the Plaza: Cathedral of Havana.

2. After the cathedral was built, the Plaza became the place to hold some of Havana’s most glorious mansions.

3. Opposite of the church, you’ll also find Museo del Arte Colonial, or Colonial Art Museum. It holds a wide collection of colonial art, including furniture, glasswork, and porcelain.

4. The Plaza also features a statue of the flamenco dancer, Antonio Gades. The Spanish dancer and choreographer helped popularize flamenco globally.

When you find yourself snapping photos away at Plaza de la Catedral, don’t forget to check out some local restaurants on site, such as Dona Eutimia and Esto no es un cafe.
