The public space in function of the communal physical activity in the historic center of Havana

Abstract

The characteristics of a metropolitan zone like the Historic Center of Old Havana, reveal how the theme space (plots of land that fix the territory) is pretty limited, with a high density of population (inhabitant square meter) and where the urban colonial tracing has provided a public space varied formed for (plazas, small squares, walks and parks). We should add this contrast a marked limitation of sports facilities for the practice of the physical activity of that population, that he includes the execution of the physical education of the centers of education and the fulfillment of the different programs of Physical Culture.
