In Haiti, Tracing a Paradise Lost, paradise still has a faded beauty.@promo-steem

in #the7 years ago

The U.N. says the country is now stable, and tourism is growing.
But the former vacation paradise still has a faded beauty.

Today, we hope for the beauty of Haiti, we can give you some new gifts today. It will look good after you. Haiti stood as the most beautiful, most colorful and poor. It has made French, African and Caribbean culture truly unique, for two hours from Miami. Yet it prevents simple definition. It's an open, free place secret

However, Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the world, according to the World Bank, GDP 846 dollars per person living in the Hayatians up to $ 2.41 per day under the national poverty limit of fifty to nine percent. Economic growth is low, and political conflicts The constant State Department "warns the citizens of the United States about the risks of traveling to Haiti carefully" as long as I can remember that this is a special advice.
Here is not the end to stay with the new one.

Let's not know more details,
Travelers like they go together can not think of Haiti and, but in the years following World War II, the country belonged to Caribbean Highlight Relay. With the title "Haiti Joy" of the New York Times magazine of 1947, this article is "extremely distinct, awesome color and surprisingly cheap" and describes the proposed hotels, bars and places to look for. I received similar articles in the 1930s when I spoke of Haiti's exceptional culture and many attractions in the late 1950s. The ships and planes of Port-au-Prince cruised the unloading of tourists, in which an article in 1956, they will buy "Remembrance Commemorations" in the city of Paradise, entering the city center.

Haiti was a major tourist destination, because it has been several generations, but it can be one another again. International chain chains have arrived, and the number of flight has increased significantly in the country. For years, American Airlines was the only US carrier flying or carrying but now JetBlue, Spirit and Delta also serve port-a-prince, and the American Cap Hetin has started a daily flight

When I came to this fall, my friend Pierre Esperance brought me to Port-au-Prince Airport. I've known Pierre since 2000, a year later, he was almost killed by Hiten's most significant human rights activist for his occupation. Despite the attack and other threats, he still has the same lines of work.

Pierre is in danger, even rising, yet the synthesized observer of Haiti's disease. That evening, when I asked him to assess the current situation of the country, his friendly nature was becoming neutral. There was an uncertain place in Haiti, he said, experiencing a mixture of progress and disasters. The road infrastructure has improved, such as the police, but the institutions of Haiti were very weak and did not have political will to support them. Justice and prisons were particularly problematic.

We chatted on his roof, filled with pink, white, red, and orange bougainvillea, and waiting for the electricity to come. Pierre's home takes only a few hours of energy every day, and he is one of the lucky ones. It is a clear reminder that in some ways Haiti has made very little progress. Born on the island of Gonaev near Pierre, and grew up without electricity during Jean-Claude Dualier's dictatorship.

Together at the end of our evening, I wanted to compare Pierre with the current dictatorship. He smiled and wondered "It's night and day," he said. "Because today we have the freedom to express under the rule of Duvalier, you can not sit here and talk because people will listen to us and they will come to arrest us. But today you can walk down the street and say you want."

The next day I've been touring Port-au-Prince. It was a national holiday, and the traffic was light. I've visited some of the interesting sights of the capital: a broken iron market, port-a-prince capitree, a warren in the streets around a luxurious cemetery and the metallic area of ​​the neighboring Croix des Buxes, where the generation of Haythians oil drum and metal in the ornate masterpieces The pieces have been converted to the top. its not dream its reality,
Before the roads were not so good, there was a lot of difficulty for movement, but now many improvements have been good for the horse to return, since it is a very poor place to fall in a little bit of trouble,


For those who love the sea, this place of Haiti will be able to revolve in a very nice boat, catch fish and enjoy this beautiful scene.

Those who like to buy something, that means they want to buy something outside traditions, they have a good news. They are going to buy different types of things in there. There are different types of shops on the road while you can buy them, you can buy them around, all have fun papa. They make a lot of themselves, because of their own hands, they can not get anywhere else, and they can not get anywhere else. Namentasa your mind a little different in the hope that you will enjoy
