Top attractions in Haiti

Haiti holds the Citadelle Laferriere, the largest fortress in the Americas, built after the revolution that made the country the first independent Black republic, along with the ruins of Sans-Souci palace nearby.

The guides on this page cover Haiti as a whole. The country has faced a severe crisis in recent years: widespread gang control of the capital and major routes, kidnappings, a collapsed security situation and periodic closure of the main airport. Governments broadly advise against all travel and consular assistance is minimal. This material describes the country's landmarks rather than current travel conditions, which official advisories cover.
