海地旅游haidi

海地是个老牌的共和国，1804年独立至今有二百零六年了，是五十一个联合国创始会员国之一，居民以黑人为主，本地黑人都是最早被西方人当做奴隶从非洲大陆上运来的，海地、多米尼加共和国、牙买加都是我有感情和一向关注的国度。

海地共和国太子港的总统府，可不是美国白宫哦！

肯尼亚和塞内加尔的总统府也是白的，很可惜这座建筑已经成为一堆废墟了

海地南部的加勒比海滨，渔船是正在珊瑚浅海捕捞龙虾。

海地南部的私人海滩，白沙、碧海、蓝天……

不能光向国人展示黑人国的光明面，也要让大家看看海地这块美丽岛屿也是有垃圾问题的。

海地的自然风光

青山绿水蓝天白云此句出自于海地？

这里的天主教堂比比皆是，还有一种本地的原始宗教叫做伏都教，它源于西非，被奴隶带来了海地。

这样的酒店在海地不难找，和棕榈树及鸟类比邻，感觉比多哥洛美和肯尼亚的蒙巴萨还好。

这个不叫达拉达拉，也不叫马他图，而是他普-他普。

TAXI和BUS的混合体。

海地的大众交通工具，他普-他普。

他普-他普又在利用堵车的时候揽客了

举世闻名的太子港贫民窟，里约热内卢和内罗毕的齐贝拉贫民窟也比它逊色三分。
