Country: Ghana

Ghana, a West African nation located on the Gulf of Guinea, is known for its diverse wildlife, historic forts, and secluded beaches like Busua. The coastal towns of Elmina and Cape Coast feature posubans (indigenous shrines), colonial buildings, and various castles converted into museums that bear witness to the slave trade. North of Cape Coast, the expansive Kakum National Park allows visitors to walk on a suspended bridge above the rainforest canopy.
