located in the town of Milot in the Northern Department of Haiti, is a monumental building erected between 1810 and 1813 by King Henri Christophe and his Queen. It was built to rival the greatness and opulence of the renowned palaces of Europe, and to show that the black people had the power and the means to build a Versailles of their own.
With its impressive architecture, the Palace Sans Souci was a magnificent and awe-inspiring wonder. It featured a set of large courtyards, balconies, and terraces with a breathtaking view of the scenery. Inside, there were several grand halls and bedrooms with intricate designs and beautiful furnishings. But the most remarkable aspect of the palace was the grand staircase which led to the grand salon, where the King and Queen held their meetings and receptions.
Sadly, in 1842 an earthquake destroyed much of the palace and its greatness was reduced to ruins. Nevertheless, the ruins of the Palace Sans Souci remain majestic and hauntingly beautiful. In 1982, it was classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it continues to impress people from all over the world.

Krewe Du Kanaval Honors The Haitian Roots Of New Orleans! A few years ago, a new krewe sprung up with the aim of celebrating the Haitian roots that run deep through the city's cultural identity. Krewe Du Kanaval was co-founded by Win Butler and Régine Chassagne, best known as the husband-and-wife duo who front the Grammy award-winning rock band, Arcade Fire. These days, the Canadian musicians are residents of New Orleans and good friends with Ben Jaffe of the storied Preservation Hall Jazz Band. Butler says the idea to start the Krewe stemmed from a trip he took with Jaffe to Haiti. It was Jaffe's first time in the country. #krewedukanaval #Kanaval #neworleans #haiti #haitianheritage #heritage #karnival #arcadefire #nyfriendsofhaiti #nyfoh2010 #lesamisdhaitti2010 #haitiandiaspora https://www.npr.org/sections/world-cafe/2020/02/12/804873908/krewe-du-kanaval-honors-the-haitian-roots-of-new-orleans https://www.instagram.com/p/B8omCSqj9UC/?igshid=10gdk4tq6wol8
