Land of the Sun is an album by American jazz musician Charlie Haden. In 2005, the album won Haden the Grammy Award for Best Latin Jazz Album.

Music critic Thom Jurek of Allmusic wrote of the album; "Land of the Sun is a deeply romantic album, but it is lush without artificial ornamentation or affectation. Musically, its refinement is such that it begs critical as well as casual listening. Hopefully this won't be the last such exercise from Haden and Rubalcaba, but an introduction."

Recorded December 19–22, 2003 at Avatar Studios, NYC. Mixed February 22–28, 2004 at Capitol Studios, Los Angeles, California. Mastered April 12, 2004 at the Mastering Lab, Los Angeles, California
