Top 29 Things To Do In Accra, Ghana
While Ghana is lesser known as a travel destination compared to its sister nations such as Egypt and Morocco, it should not be overlooked by wanderers.

However, there are also hotels in Accra that similarly serve as great gateways to the city's heritage. If you are looking for a great time here, embark on these top things to do in Accra, Ghana. *For expert insights on Accra, check out our video where Kormi, a tour guide for the city, shares great tips for a fun holiday!*

A Guide To Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, Ghana
Located in the bustling city of Accra, the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park is one of the city's biggest and most iconic landmarks.

From 1878 to 1957, Accra served as the capital of the British Gold Coast. Now, Accra is a city of contrasts, with 19th-century colonial-style buildings mixed together with modern skyscrapers. No trip to Accra is complete without a visit to Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, so here is a guide to Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, Ghana.
