I would love to visit Havana if I knew it was safe. Not sure. Same for North Korea. Fascinating(and sad) how those societies function.
North Korea does not function
It's probably safe, but very depressing.
I know several people who have gone. None of them experienced any problems. All of them are leftists who approved of the Cuban government. One of them, probably the farthest left of the bunch, was quite happy with the prostitutes. It takes a special sort of person to approve of a form of government that forces women into prostitution.
Went on a mission trip there and felt really safe walking the streets but we were in the tourist section.
I’m sure there are other areas that aren’t as safe but then I won’t walk most areas of St Louis.
I have been to Havana (in my dreams) and it is very safe. It is a wonderful city full of wonderful architecture and people. Would go back in a heartbeat. If you can go do so.
My brother in law is with the state dept and he was in Cuba a couple of years ago visiting our non embassy on business. He took some great video of Havana and I got a chance to see it. Very interesting. All the old vintage cars driving around are wild.
