Santiago de Cuba is the capital of Cuba's southeastern Santiago de Cuba Province, facing a bay off the Caribbean Sea. Founded by the Spanish in 1515, it's known for colonial architecture and revolutionary history. The city's distinctive Afro-Cuban cultural influences are on display during July's Carnaval, a festival with drum-beating parades featuring colorful costumes and son dancing, a precursor to salsa.

"This is a wonderfully impressive picture, taken on the morning after the battle in which the Spanish navy was destroyed. This battleship, once the 'Pride of Spain,' is shown a ruined hulk on the beach, the terrible effect of the guns of Uncle Sam's warship being apparent everywhere. Contrasted with our earlier picture of the 'Viscaya' in New York harbor, the 'Viscaya' here presents a woeful appearance."
