Explore Cape Coast – Elmina in a brief( Roles in the slave trade)

After visiting the historical slave dungeon sites and their role in the trans-Atlantic slave trade, visitors get to find themselves on the map of human geography as we begin to make decisions to fight against social injustice, the fight against social injustice becomes the responsibility one takes upon himself as we find the need to tolerate each other as humanity. The stop to the kakum forest becomes the spot where the visitor release stress after a 30min ride to the park after a walk through the dungeons to have a romantic contact as the visitor experiences pure nature. On route from Kakum, the visit to the international beehive center gives the visitor the opportunity to learn about the friendly bees and have a taste of first time produced honey from the bees.

Usually being called a castle instead of a slave duneon, it is one the youngest slave dungeons on the coast of sub-Saharan Africa when the land of Africa fell to the first Europeans. Unlike the Elmina slave dungeons, it has gone through the hands of many European powers like the Portugal, Sweden, Denmark, Netherlands and the British. Being infamous enough, it has a been a spot for well known documentaries on the trans Atlantic slave Trade.

It is also the largest and the oldest European building in the whole of Sub-Saharan Africa. Whiles the Cape Coast Slave dungeon is being known for its popular visits by American diplomats like Ex President Obama and Kamala Harris who recently visited, Elmina is known for its visit by American super-stars like Steve Harvey, Samuel L. Jackson and more. Worth visiting.

Extending over an area of 375km2 inland of Cape Coast, Kakum Park protects the core of Ghana's largest remaining tract of rainforest. Aside its bird watching and hiking activities, one of the main attraction for most visitors is the canopy-walkway that rises above 40 meters above the forest floor. It was originally set aside as a forest reserve in 1931, it was designated as a national park in 1992, partly at the initiative of local communities. With an exceeding 200 per hectare plant species and 650 species of butterfly, it is one of the largest national parks in West Africa.

The International Stingless Bee Centre (ISBC) is a sanctuary for stingless bees and a place of environmental education and ecotourism. Many people do not know about stingless bees, especially African species. This is a more educative tour which the visitors get insights on honey production and a fascinating way nature works with bees.
