I enjoy visiting Marche de Fer! The atmosphere was great and safe. I brought several items from the market. I tried to support as much businesses as possible.

The epicenter of tourist goods in Haiti with iron work and voodoo beaded flags and grotesque dolls competing with a mountain of more standard items. There is a food market next door.

Definitely worth seeing. Keep your valuables and children close to you (so they don't get lost). Bring smaller denominations of currency and don't pull out a big wad. Make sure you have a local with you to keep people at bay and help translate.

Fun experience, the group learned to bargain and no one came home empty-handed! The market doesn't have much air circulation so be prepared for the heat.

A taxi driver took me there. It is an interesting place but you are likely to be harassed by vendors who follow you around. It seems buying anything would be a "mistake" since this will only increase the number of people around you. You should be calm and assertive and you will be ok. I bargained every object I wanted, especially since I discovered that not doing so increased the price of the next object quickly; so bargaining is not so much a matter of lowering your expense, but rather keeping them reasonable. Try to visit the whole place before you buy things, because then, it will be hard for you to walk at your leisure, since you will be fending vendors who are not aggressive but relentless. You will see a variety of fruit, vegetables, all sorts of things for rituals, cigars, and so on.
