Haitian Paradise

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Fueled by the popular misconception that Haiti is a country of sorcery and zombies, most people fear my country. Tourists are always warned to stay out of Haiti because of the religious traits and the political issues. The Overseas Security Advisory Council (OSAC) often discourages people to visit Haiti because of political turmoil and crime threats. These issues, that are explained to tourists planning trips to Haiti, can also be noticed in many other countries around the world. When people think of Haiti, they instantly see: Poverty, Dictatorships,Voodoo, Political Instability and Violence. Unfortunately, they dont take the time to see the really positive side of Haiti. They don't take the time to acknowledge the fact that Haiti still has remarkable potential and of course a resiliant population. Haiti is an exceptional place where splendor and enjoyement can be found.

Haiti is a really beautiful country filled with gorgeous touristic locations that can't be found anywhere else on the planet. Our breathtaking beaches are the envy of most other countries in the Caribbean. The soft white sand, the warm tropical sun and the cool blue waters are only a few of my country precious treasures. Our incredible landmarks stand tall and illustrate our proud heritage. For example: The Citadelle Laferrière is a large mountaintop fortress located in northern Haiti, approximately 17 miles south of the city of Cap-Haitien and five miles uphill from the town of Milot. It is the largest fortress in the western hemisphere and is one of the most popular tourist destinations in all of Haiti.
Haiti is a magical place where fun and magic surrounds everyone! It is truly a Paradise!!!
