NewLake Bosomtwe
Ghana's only natural lake, cradled in a million-year-old meteorite crater and revered by the Ashanti as sacred.
4.0 (4 reviews)
The cultural heartbeat of Ghana and seat of the centuries-old Asante Kingdom. Kumasi — the Garden City — is home to Manhyia Palace, the vast Kejetia Market (the largest open-air market in West Africa), and living traditions of Kente weaving and Adinkra cloth. Beyond the city, the sacred waters of Lake Bosomtwe fill a meteorite crater ringed by forested hills, while the golden stool legacy, Ashanti festivals, and warrior history make this region a pilgrimage for anyone seeking to understand Ghanaian identity.
