Accra, sóóó Ghana

by Pieter11 - last update: Mar 1, 2007

Independence Arch; centre of the nation
Accra is the capital of Ghana and is situated at the very south of the country, at the Atlantic Coast. The city has over one million inhabitants and is the absolute centre of the country. It has the nation's only international airport, it has the base of politics and it is very, very Ghana.
Only in Accra you can find overpasses like this
Accra is everything Ghana has to offer, but bigger. Every city or town in Ghana has a Tro-Tro station: Accra has at least 5 of them. Ghana is a perfect place to buy West-African handicraft, Accra has the biggest market. Traffic in Ghana is always very chaotic, Accra is the worst. Every town in Ghana has a colourful market, Accra's markets are among the biggest.

 Excellent page with beer from a straw :-) The Tro-tro's remind me of Taxi-Brousse in Madagascar.
