Accra can be compared to
any Capital city in the world. It is a constantly growing metropolis
with the
only difference probably being that Accra is the trend setter for
music and fashion the rest of West Africa.
Places of interest are the Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum -
Dr. Kwame Nkrumah
was the first President
of Ghana,
National Theater and the Du Bois Centre - Du Bois was the
leader of the Pan African Congress from 1919 to 1927.
The Arts Centre has an
extensive crafts market where one can purchase gifts.
Another place of curiosity and
growing interest is the craft shop of the Teshie Coffin Builders. Here one can order a coffin in any shape desired
may it be an airplane, a corn cob, a beer bottle or a chicken.
