parque vidal is probably one of the most typical places in cuba. during the afternoons, people (especially singles) visit the park to meet others. although not widely practiced in recent times, the custom was to walk the park around and around. the women walk the inner part of the park, while the men walk the outer side. another lost custom was for the locals to set up a platform and offer improvisations with their guitars on late sunday afternoons. for that day they dressed with their guayaberas and highly polished shoes.
