Jimaní
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jimaní is the capital of the Independencia Province of the Dominican Republic. It serves as one of the two main thoroughfares to Haiti (with Dajabón), with a duty free open air marketplace operating on the border. Half of the town was completely washed away in the flash flood of May 25, 2004, killing many of the citizens during the night. It is still in the process of rebuilding.
