Cronache di Accra

Accra, the capital of Ghana, has a rich history dating back to 15th-century gold trading posts. The city's architecture reflects its colonial past, with British-era buildings standing alongside modern structures. Accra's cultural identity is a blend of traditional Akan and Ga influences, with a strong emphasis on music, art, and food. The city's annual Chale Wote Street Art Festival showcases its vibrant street art scene. The Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, dedicated to Ghana's first president, is a poignant reminder of the city's complex history.

Principali attrazioni a Accra

Makola Market Free

💡 Go early, around 7am, when it’s cooler and less crowded. Keep valuables hidden and haggle politely—half the starting price is a fair target.

Independence Square (Black Star Square) Free

💡 Visit on a weekday morning when the square is mostly empty. The monument is unguarded, so just walk up—no ticket needed.

National Museum of Ghana

💡 Focus on the basement—it has the best displays on pre-colonial life. Plan for 45 minutes max; the air conditioning is a bonus.

Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park

💡 Arrive before noon to avoid the heat. Bring a hat and water, and skip the guided tour if you’re short on cash—the exhibits are self-explanatory.

Labadi Beach (La Pleasure Beach)

💡 Avoid Sundays unless you want a packed crowd. Go on a weekday for a serene experience, and buy fresh coconut from the vendors for 2 GHS.
