Haiti is a country that attracts many visitors thanks to its impressive tourism potential. A stay in Haiti offers you the privilege of living in the midst of a naturally beautiful setting. As you explore its wilderness, you'll discover a dense forest where animal and plant species abound. You can also relax on its verdant plains when you've finished surveying its rugged mountains. End the day with an invigorating stroll along the heavenly beaches. Perhaps you'd like to do something different the next day? A visit to Haiti's architectural treasures will undoubtedly do you good. These monuments can be found in the Milot National Historic Park. As well as admiring the beauty and originality of these 19th-century buildings, such as the Citadelle la Ferrière and the Palais Sans-souci, you'll also witness the stories that Haitians have lived through in the past.
But don't leave this pearl of the Antilles without visiting its capital. This is the center of local culture. Here you can admire the Marché de Fer (Iron Market). It's an allegorical building of the city of Port-au-Prince. You'll also pass through art galleries displaying voodoo and naive art. Continuing westwards, you'll have the chance to end your day on the Arcadins coast. Try your hand at water sports, or just relax in one of the many seaside resorts.
The gastronomic art of a country is one of the factors that attract tourists to visit. Speaking of Haiti's, this is not to be overlooked. Haitian cuisine offers a wide variety of dishes. These are concocted from local produce such as rice, potatoes, bananas and Haitian black mushrooms. However, the cuisine is infused with French culinary art. And the spicy taste of the dishes is reminiscent of Creole specialties. The best-known recipes are riz djon djon, in which the stems of Haitian black mushrooms impart their color to the rice. There's also patate bread, a mixture of banana and potato. On Sundays, expect to taste joumou soup or pumpkin soup for lunch. But Haitians also use a lot of pork fat in their culinary preparations. It's a way for them to add more flavor to their dishes. For example, tasso is goat meat fried in pork fat. You'll also discover the flavor of griot, commonly known as fried pork. To enjoy all these Haitian wonders, it's important to choose the right time to visit. For a favorable climate that's free of humidity and pleasantly sunny, go between December and February. The tropical climate of the Caribbean is bound to spoil you at these times.
