If you are anywhere close to Santiago de Cuba this is a must see. It is very easy to get to and offers a great view featuring a huge statue of "the Bronze Titan" Antonio Maceo with the Sierra Maestra mountain range as a backdrop. From the plaza you can see many nationalistic signs and in my opinion, that is to be expected but it is worth recognizing because Santiago plays such an important part of Cuban history. You can walk the plaza as it is the type of venue where many people are coming/going.
5. Iglesia Sagrada Familia
