Ghana is blessed with very beautiful natural resorts which now serve as tourist attractions.
The Ghana Tourism Industry initiated a tourism idea called the ‘Year of Return’ for the African-Americans who wishes to come back home to Africa, particularly Ghana, for a visit or permanent stay.
The ‘Year of Return’ was a successful initiative and it brought thousands of African-American tourists to Ghana, and it is now an annual thing. They come to Ghana for holidays in every December. When they visit Ghana, they visit the best tourists sites in the country.
The following are some of the tourist sites in Ghana:
CAPE COAST CASTLE- is one of the oldest d most visited tourist site in Ghana. It has a rich history of the African-Americans and that is the site that they always visit first before the others. Cape Coast Castle is located in the Central Region of Ghana. It is a site to behold, and very beautiful. I am yet to visit this special place but I will do so soon.
KAKUM NATIONAL PARK- is one of the most popular tourist sites in Ghana. Kakum National Park has been around for years and it has hosts millions of tourists from across the world over the years.
