Country in the Caribbean
Haiti is a Caribbean country located on the island of Hispaniola, a territory it shares with the Dominican Republic to the east. Although the 2010 earthquake left traces that can still be seen, many points of interest from the beginning of the 19th century are still intact, for example the citadel La Ferrière, a fortress overlooking the island, or the surrounding ruins of the Sans Souci palace, former royal residence in baroque style of King Henry I.
