Overview


As Havana expanded during the 1930s and 1940s, Marianao became a suburb of the city.


A famous landmark is the monument built to honor Carlos Juan Finlay, a doctor who helped eradicate yellow fever in Cuba in the 19th century. It is shaped like a syringe. The monument is at the junction of Calles 100 and 31, close to several major hospitals.[citation needed]


Marianao is home to the famous Tropicana Club and was home to the Oriental Park Racetrack.
One of the most notable foods made in Marianao is "Pollo A La Barbacoa".
