Stretched along the Atlantic Ocean, Ghana's most populous city boasts glittering beaches, monumental buildings, museums, libraries, galleries, traditional markets and lively nightlife.

A veritable melting pot of cultures, the city's central financial and shopping districts contrast sharply with the less affluent residential areas surrounding the urban core.

This is the home, library and final resting place of American-born crusader for social justice, William Edward Burghardt DuBois.

Definitely worth visiting if interested in learning something new. This is the home of W.E.B. DuBois at which he lived until his death in 1963. It is now a museum and his burial site. Lots to see- library, burial site, photos, information on prominent black political figures, personal items, graduation gowns and paintings. You can also walk around the grounds. Personal tour given on request. Kingsley was excellent. Fee for entrance and tour is 7 Cedis. Worth checking out the Diaspora African Forum just behind. Informative tour of the exterior given by Clement. Nice way to spend a few hours.

A small museum dedicated to the country's founding father.
Reviewed By MarshallB429 - Isle of Wight, United Kingdom
Very interesting, important history, with knowledgeable guides, this memorial park is more of a small museum than a park. Plan two hours. Learn and understand. It’s quite moving when one learns about the bravery and resourcefulness of pan-African leadership in the middle of last century. Onward and upward.... always forward.

I was sitting in a tro tro on a torrid December afternoon moving from Nima to Accra. I was asleep when I opened my eyes and saw the Blue Mosque of Istanbul. I was baffled but soon I realized that it was no dream and that I was not in Istanbul. In Accra there is a perfect copy of the Blue Mosque. Don't you believe it? Then go and see it!
