An address that will catch the attention of travelers with a kitchen.

This picturesque market is the largest and most central in the capital. Spread out along Kojo Thomson Street, between Kinbu Road and Pagan Road, it is as colorful as you would expect from an African market. Apart from food products, you can find a little bit of everything, from hardware to clothes and all the daily accessories. Communication with the vendors is fairly easy, so a visit to the Makola market is a cultural activity in itself and a good way to get to know Accra.
