Our Last Trip in Ghana - A tour of some parts of Accra

KFC at Osu, Accra

On Sunday, October 21, 2012, we went to the Kwame Nkrumah Museum and Memorial Park in Accra, Ghana to see the tomb of Dr Kwame Nkrumah. We used the motorway from Tema to Accra.

Lighthouse in James Town,
Old British town, Accra

Downtown Accra

On the way I saw many exciting things. We passed the Accra Airport and we came to a place called Osu and I was surprised to see KFC. I didn't know there was KFC in Ghana. We came to a place called James Town. This is the place where the British settled when they first came to Ghana. There were so many old buildings in James Town. I even saw a red and white Lighthouse built by the British in an old shipping Harbor.
We then went to Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park. When we got there I saw a big statue of Kwame Nkrumah. Also I saw his tomb and his wife's tomb.
Kwame Nkrumah was the first president of Ghana. He was born in 1909 and died in 1972. He was the one who led the Ghanaians to fight the British for Ghana's independence.
