    If your into military artifacts and history, very good spot to visit. The guide was very knowledgeable, and I learned some things. Lots of not too often seen weaponry. Quick and easy tour

    This marketplace is absolutely huge and bustling with activity. Primarily a dry goods marketplace offering cloths, clothes, accessories, decorative items, etc. I was told it's the largest marketplace in West Africa, and I believe it. Several square kilometers of market area, you'd never see it all in one day. Worth a visit, even if you're not going to buy anything.

    Absolutely excellent museum. Small but perfectly formed as they say! It houses many asante artifacts from the olden days which all together tell a very interesting story.

    The guide who showed us round was very knowledgeable and informative.

    I love love love this mall. There’s an array of different shops and readily available ATM’s. There’s also a huge grocery store with the most friendly staff. My favorite part was the local wines in the lobby. I enjoyed sipping on my palm wine while shopping.

    The sword was an interesting place. We were allowed to try to pull the sword out. We decided not to try because we just want to enjoy our retirement.

    This was my first time ever in a casino, and I enjoyed every second of it. The food and drinks were amazing, and I was able to win a couple games of BlackJack so, I will definitely be back!

    We saw the hyenas but had gained weight because the cage was too small for them. But on the next visit, we were told the hyenas were dead. Sad to know. I enjoyed myself. We met the orphan elephant "Batu" who was rescued and he is quite friendly. But the place needs a lot of assistance and maintenance.
