Haiti is steeped in tradition and is well known for its association with Voodoo. PortauPrince is home to the Holiday Inn and Presidential Palace (next door) once inhabited by the infamous Papa Doc Duvalier. PortAuPrince is a hustling shanty town of a place compared to any other capital city despite the intervention of the US with aid to the country.
