Many people from foreign lands travel all the way to Ghana to experience our culture, learn our ways, eat our delicacies, and have a taste of the Ghanaian culture just to explore and educate themselves.
Ghana is one of the leading countries of Africa, partly because of its considerable natural wealth and partly because it was the first black African country south of the Sahara to achieve independence from colonial rule.
Ever wondered why Ghana has become one of the few African countries that mostly attract foreign investors and tourists? Ghanaians are welcoming and friendly.
