Itinerary
Visit the W.E.B. Dubois center in Accra, which is the home where Dr. DuBois spent his last years
Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum, also known as the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park(KNMP) is the last resting place of the first President of Ghana, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. It is dedicated to him for his outstanding campaign to liberate Ghana (then Gold Coast) from colonial rule in 6th March, 1957.
In 1957, the Ghanaian politician and revolutionary leader Kwame Nkrumah led the Gold Coast, now Ghana, to its independence from Britain. Nkrumah became the first prime minister and president of Ghana, and to celebrate the nation’s newfound autonomy, he commissioned the construction of a huge public square.
Explore Ghana’s oldest suburb set on the coast of downtown Accra which boasts a fascinating history and vibrant local community. From its tragic slaving past to its colorful present, immerse yourself in local culture. Listen to the fishermen sing songs as they mend their nest and watch women smoking fish between haunting historical buildings. There is a unique depth and intense history in this unforgettable part of the city!

About Accra
Accra, Ghana's capital on the Gulf of Guinea, mixes colonial forts, independence monuments, busy markets, beach bars and a famed music scene.
Accra lines the Atlantic coast, and its older districts keep the character of a trading port. In Jamestown, an old fishing quarter, a lighthouse stands beside Dutch and British forts, and boxing gyms spill onto the lanes. Black Star Square, with its Independence Arch, and the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park honour Ghana's first president and independence in 1957, while the W. E. B. Du Bois Centre remembers the writer who spent his final years here.
Top-ranked sights in Accra: Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum and Memorial Park, W. E. B. Du Bois Memorial Centre for Pan-African Culture, Makola Market.
