Camara Oscura

landmark

The Cámara Oscura stands atop the Edificio Gómez Vila, a building completed in nineteen oh nine that anchors a corner of the Plaza Vieja in Old Havana. You can identify the site by this tower, which rises thirty-five meters above the square. Inside a darkened room at the summit, a periscope system captures the sunlight of the city below and projects a live, three hundred and sixty-degree panoramic view onto a concave screen.
