Accra is the captial city of Ghana.
It is the seat of government and its financial center where all the major banks operate.
Presently it is undergoing a major reconstruction programme and new roads have already been constructed and others are presently under contruction.
The night life in Accra is varied and lively with a wonderful selection of restaurants serving African, European, Middle Eastern and Far Eastern cuisine.
Their are many hotels ranging from the 5 stars to the single star.
The city is scattered with various pubs and night clubs to suit everyone's taste.
During the day there are several attractions one might like to visit such as the National Museum with contains cultural and historical articrafts and handicrafts, Accra Zoo, Makola market where one can experience the true hustle and bustle of a market normally associated with African countries. Also if you enjoy the sun, sand and beaches their is a great stretch of beaches but the best beaches are between 45-60 minutes drive out of Accra.
Overall the people of the city are very friendly and it is safe to move around in the day and night.
I would confidently say that this is the best city in West Africa
