Croix des Bouquets

Brief information about the Croix des Bouquets

Croix-des-Bouquets (Haitian Creole: Kwadèbouke) is a commune at the Ouest Section of Haiti. It is situated 12.9 kilometers (8.0 mi) to the northeast of Haiti's capital town, Port-au-Prince. It was relocated inland after the 1770 Port-au-Prince earthquake.

Due to this reality, it was not as badly affected from the 2010 Haiti earthquake. When the first wave of refugees starts to be resettled there, the city will be home to refugee tent villages of about 10,000 refugees each.
