Review (in 1996):

Ralph Reid, a film student from Northridge, California, does an excellent job of conveying the essence of his native country with this site.  His “virtual tour” of Haiti takes you to the crowded Iron Market, to a Port-au-Prince boulevard during rush hour, and on a beautiful beach stroll, where you can practically smell the millions of discarded conch shells.

You can also check out Carol Guzy’s Pulitzer Prize-winning photographs of Haiti, and groove to musical selections like Reginald Decastro’s “Pou ou Ayiti”.  History buffs will want to take this site up on its Haitian history course, while others may be more inclined to gravitate to the Voodoo section.  (Discover special days on the Voodoo calendar, like Legba Zaou, when “eating consists mainly of a black goat”.)

A fascinating page with a very strong flavor.
