Itinéraire
We will start our walk at the Osu Castle, listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage site. It was originally built by the Swedes for trade in timber and gold, but later used in the trans-Atlantic slave trade.
We will walk west along 28th February Road until we reach the Black Star Square, also known as Independence Square, bordered by the Accra Sports Stadium and the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park.
Stopover at Ghana’s biggest craft market, where you will have an opportunity to use your bargaining skills to shop from an open-air market for artefacts from Ghana and the rest of Africa.
Visit the (the final resting place of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana’s first President). The Mausoleum is surrounded by water which is a symbol of life. Its presence conveys a sense of immortality for the name Nkrumah. It shows that even in death he lives on in the hearts and minds of generations here and generations yet to come.
Continuing our walk down the High Street, by the Supreme Court's Monument and Holy Trinity Cathedral. Take a break at the Osekan Restaurant, overlooking the Gulf of Guinea.
Continue to the fishing village of James Town, which happens to be one of the oldest settlements full of beautifully disheveled colonial buildings, clapboard houses and corrugated iron shacks – but it remains one of the most vibrant districts. End the day with a walk through old Accra, dotted with historical sites, including forts, a harbor and a lighthouse.

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.
