chrisagyei: I understand bro.....I only wish Nigerians saying that will visit the country to clear off that misconception. The Western Region (Sekondi-Takoradi as its capital) of Ghana is an integrated complex of beautiful safe beaches and African touch beach resorts. It has the largest collection of European trading forts (later used in the slave trade); the highest tropical jungles; numerous mines, and friendly people; and old architectural styles and vivacious festivals. The region’s water villages on stilts are amazing to experience. A visitor can charter a local canoe out to the village and actually stay over night in a guest house on the water. The region is located in the south-western part of Ghana and shares boundaries with the Central, Ashanti, and Brong-Ahafo regions. To the West it shares a border with the republic of Cote D’Ivoire. The native people of the Western Region are mostly Akans, speaking various dialects including: Ahanta, Nzema, Sefwi, Wassa, Brosa, and Pepesa. Pricipal religions are Christianity, African Aminism, and Islam. The main exportable produce are cocoa, timber, copra, coffee, rubber/latex, gold, manganese, and bauxite. Attractions & Tourist sites The Castles of the Western Region The Western Region is another region with a rich heritage demonstrated by the number of castles still open to visitors. The best examples in the region are: 1. Fort St Appolonia at Beyin 2. Fort cross at Dixcove (1693) 3. Fort Batensteyn (1656) at Butri 4. Fort Groot Fredericksburg at Princess Town 5. Fort S. Antonio at Axim (1515) 6. Fort Dorothea (ruins) at Akwida 7. Fort Sebastian at Shama 8.The Village on Stilt of Nzulezu 9.Akatekyi Crocodile Pond Some of the most popular beaches are: 1. Busua Pleasure Beach – only 5km from fort metal cross 2. Sports Club Beach – behind the Atlantic hotel in Takoradi 3. Ajua Beach – just 200metres from Dadowa lagoon 4. Princess Town Beach – off the Takoradi/Elubo highway 5. Mimia Beach – a secluded beach with rocky cave perfect for picnics. Dr. Nkrumah’s Grave The original grave of Dr. Nkrumah, first President of Ghana and now buried in the mausoleum in Accra, can be found at Nkroful, 83km west of Takoradi. The Mines of Ghana The western region has several mines that may be visited, by prior arrangement. The main sites are: Nsuta Manganese Mine – 20km southeast of Tarkwa Prestea Goldmine – 40km north of Tarkwa Tarkwa Goldmines – founded in the 1800s just 92km northwest of Takoradi |
