Nestled along the Gulf of Guinea and the Atlantic Ocean, in enchanting West Africa, Ghana is a land of unmatched beauty rich in history, culture, wildlife, and natural landscapes. Known as the "Gateway to Africa," this vibrant nation is the first African country to achieve independence from colonial rule in 1957, a symbol of pride that resonates to this day. Renowned for its warm and friendly locals, Ghana is famed for its great diversity, from bustling markets in electrifying cities like Accra, to serene beaches along Cape Coast, the wildlife-filled grasslands of Mole National Park, and the iconic Elmina and Cape Coast Castles, which form an integral part of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites bearing witness to the tragic slave trade era. Whether it is its Kente cloth that vividly captures the African spirit, flavorful cuisine, or the invigorating highlife music, Ghana continues to amaze visitors with its dynamic blend of traditions and modernity.

It was safe and fun. The waterfalls were absolutely breathtaking. I couldn’t do the walkway cause I’m scared of heights lol. Definitely bring water along if you wanna partake in the hiking at Amedzofe!

Kumasi was one of the safest cities I visited. Having spent all of my life in Accra, I expected it to be different but it really wasn’t . People are so nice. Crime is low.  Food is super affordable. Would recommend!
