It was before communism, 1959, had a large foreign population of almost 30 percent that left.
Reminds of Oran, Argel, Casablanca or Alejandria, ancient paradises turned into totalitarian dust.
But yes, very cosmopolitan ruins and people are indeed cosmopolitan.
Yes, as many tourists from other parts of the world including USA travel to Cuba and marvel at the beauty of Havana.

Canadians and Europeans routinely visit Cuba in sizable numbers.
Americans DO visit Cuba, but they have to go through a third country. So, they'll go through either Mexico or Canada or Central America. When they visit Cuba, Cuba will NOT stamp their passport. Instead, they give you some piece of paper that states your legal status to visit. Of course, you can't lose that paper, as you must bring it back to immigration on the way out.
I don't think it's technically illegal to be in Cuba as an American. It's illegal to 'spend money' there. Additionally, the U.S. will not allow flights to Cuba directly. However, supposedly Miami is an exception to this, and has flights for Cuban-Americans - or so I've heard anyways.
