Historic fort
Fort Jacques
Why locals love it
Fort Jacques is one of the places I always take guests to visit. While most of the "history" you hear from guides is just legend, the fort itself is still worth the trip. It is actually a revolutionary war era building, but no, the mortar between the stones was not made with the blood of disobedient soldiers.

The cool air and pine forests are a welcome respite from the heat of Port-au-Prince.
