accra life

by stevenduncan

there is the museums and of coarse the beaches. accra in general iss so busy it can take up to 2 hours to travel 5 miles through the city. there is plenty of night life but make sure they dont rip you off for entrance fees, as they will, no question. the people in general are nice however, as africa is a third world country, this niceness extended to you by alot of ghanians comes with a price.They would be happy with 1 cedi, which is roughly equivalent to about 50 pence.there are others who want to sell you things and wont take know for an answer. you buy things alot of the time through peer pressure.everything is so relaxed over there and sometimes i wondered if anything actually got done.

"accra - lively capital of ghana"

Accra (English pronunciation: /ʌkˈra/) is the capital and most populous city of Ghana, a nation on the coast of the western region of Africa. The city also doubles as the capital of the Greater Accra Region, and of the Accra Metropolis District with which it is coterminous.[1] It is the administrative, communications, and economic center of the country. Over 70% of Ghana's manufacturing capacity is located within this region district.[2] Accra has been Ghana's capital since 1877, and contains public buildings reflecting its transition from a 19th century suburb of Victoriasborg to the modern metropolis it is today.

Among the attractions of Accra are the National Museum, with a display of exhibits that reflect the heritage of Ghana from prehistoric times to modern times, the National Theatre with its distinct modern architecture, Independence Square, the Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum, the Accra International Conference Centre, the fishing port at Jamestown and Makola Market.

Edward and Janette lived in Accra...

by vooren

"for almost a year."

And enjoyed it tremendously! Edward had to finish a project for Golden Tulip Hotels near the airport and we lived on Akosombo Rd. in a home called "the Castle". It was... On the compound were staff facilities, an olympic size pool, a guard for day and night, and about fifteen upstairs rooms of wich we only used about three.
