About Port-au-Prince
Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital city, sits on the Gulf of Gonâve. The Musée du Panthéon National Haïtien honors the nation's history and founding fathers. The Iron Market, a large 1891 covered bazaar, has produce and handicraft vendors. Nearby is the immense Notre Dame de l'Assomption Cathedral, reduced to a ruin by a 2010 earthquake. Colorful gingerbread-style houses from the turn of the 19th century dot the city.
