    At the end of the evening after the showing and perfirming of all the dances, it was time for everybody to join.
    At that moment everybody could dance together. The women of the village were very willing to teach us how to dance their local dances. So we had a lot of fun together.

    Especially in the smaller villages the people like it to invite you for drumming and dancing.

    At the picture:
    When we spent the night in Peki Tsame, in the Eastern Region, south of Kpandu, we were invited. We had a very joyful evening together.

    by abdulwa
    there are a lot of nite clubs,casinos,cafes,pubs,life bands etc to give entertainment to the traveller anytime it is night in ghana.well good clubs like the glenns nite club has been closed down but equally good ones like the newly refurnished boomerang nite club which is arguably the best in town now,the kilimanjaroo,his majesty,strawberry are some of the few night clubs you can relax at.mostly the fun is at adabraka,circle and osu in the nights.but you can get other forms of entertainment.there are also new clubs now which are trying to rule the waves like the warehouse night club,the yegoala nite club and celebration nite club just to name a few. there are also old but cool ones like the office nite club, vanity nite club and others.

    the dress code for most of this places is a gentle wear(shirt, shoe and pens).no rough dressing is sometimes permitted.

  • Highlife Nightclub - Ghana
    Highlife Nightclub
    by atufft
    West Africa is rich on music, and the local Highlife style is commonly found played live. Discoes tend to play American hiphop and the Ghana electronic imitations of this genre. Reggae is also popular, especially on over the radio and cassette players of the Tro-Tros. Unlike Western bars and nightclubs, security is not an important issue. The strong social stigma against theives and violence in general protects tourists in particular. My wife and I were the only whites in a sea of black dancing bodies during several of our nights out. Drunk Africans can be very "physical" in their friendship though, something delicate European and American tourist might feel uneasy about.

    Very casual in all these places due to the heat. Women might want to dress somewhat conservatively in this crowded place, but my wife didn't experience any problems with roving hands or anything like that. Neither did I.

    When we spent the night in Peki Tsame, everybody of the village came to the compound. where we camped, for the
    drumming and dancing.
    First the girls of Peki Tsame showed us their dances. We really enjoyed to look at their performed dances.

  • Check out Champs Sports Bar - remember, you're only travelling the world to get drunk in other places.
    In global terms, it's not unique, but that's the point. To my knowledge it's the only such place in Ghana - a little oasis of home.
