This museum is located in Accra, entrance fee needed . The museum was recently remodeled. It is appealing especially, with the lights and the spider web decor hanging in the middle of the space. Detailed information has been provided on each piece of item. It’s a really cool place to be if you would like to know about the rich culture of the people of Ghana or you’re one to just explore public place. Check this place out if you’re ever in Accra, Ghana!

Harmattan is a cool dry wind that blows from the northeast or east in the western Sahara and is strongest from late November to mid-March Here is just a quick tip, the weather is mostly dry. Please drink a lot of water throughout the day and take your vitamin c daily. If you have a cold or cough, please avoid using the air conditioning, especially at night. Keep your skin moisturizer as often as you can. Use a moisturizer that is oil based like coconut oil, Shea butter or cocoa butter
