POST CONGRESS PROGRAM “SPACE PHYSIOLOGY”
This amazing architecture was designed by the Cuban architect Antonio Quintana and built in 1975. Conceived for the Soviet cosmonauts to rest, such a building resembles a space station and is located on the beach, with an independent entrance and direct access to the sea. Some distinguished guests have visited the house, including Arnaldo Tamayo Méndez, the one and only Cuban cosmonaut who on September 18, 1980 flew into space on a Soviet spaceship along with the Russian cosmonaut Yuri Romanenko. It has nowadays become an exclusive part of the luxury Sol Sirens Coral Resorts.
