Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park

The Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park: A Beacon of Ghana's Revolutionary Spirit. In the heart of Accra, the vibrant capital of Ghana, stands a monument that embodies the soul of a nation and the spirit of one of its greatest leaders. The Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park & Mausoleum is more than just a memorial; it's a testament to the resilience, ambition, and enduring legacy of a man who dared to dream of an independent Ghana.

Opened in 1992, the memorial complex is nestled on what was once the British colonial polo grounds. This symbolic location is a striking reminder of Ghana's journey from a colonial outpost to a sovereign nation.

The centrepiece of the memorial park is the mausoleum, the final resting place of Kwame Nkrumah and his wife, Fathia Nkrumah. Designed by Don Arthur, its architecture is rich in cultural symbolism. Resembling an upside-down sword, a symbol of peace in Akan culture, the mausoleum is a beacon of tranquillity amidst the bustling city. Adorned with Italian marble and crowned with a black star symbolizing unity, it is a testament to the ideals Nkrumah held dear. The interior is equally impressive, featuring marble flooring and a marble grave marker set amidst river-washed rocks. A skylight illuminates the grave, and the entire mausoleum is surrounded by water, a universal symbol of life.

But who was the man this grand structure honours? Kwame Nkrumah (21 September 1909 – 27 April 1972) was a revolutionary and a visionary. He led the Gold Coast to independence from Britain in 1957, becoming Ghana's first Prime Minister and President. A passionate advocate of pan-Africanism, Nkrumah co-founded the Organisation of African Unity and was awarded the Lenin Peace Prize in 1962.

Destination of the Week

Panama

Panama may be best-known for the Panama Canal, but the Central American country has many other incredible features, like its beautiful coasts in both the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, its unmatched biodiversity and an abundance of exciting restaurants.

Panama, with a population of 3.8 million, is a large isthmus, or a narrow piece of land connecting larger areas, located between Costa Rica to the northwest and Colombia to the southeast. Because of its unique location, the Panama Canal, a 48-mile long ship canal, was built and first put into use in 1914 to connect the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. It's considered one of the most impressive engineering accomplishments of the 20th century. People love to sit and watch the wide variety of vessels, from cruise ships to tour boats, move through the giant locks.

It’s relatively easy for U.S. travelers to visit Panama. To enter the country, travelers must have a passport that’s valid for a minimum of six months. Travelers should be sure to get an exit visa and Panama entry visa stamped into their passport, as this will help alleviate any difficulties when trying to leave the country.

The roads in Panama are considered some of the best in Central America, which makes it easy to get around to the many museums in the country. However, travelers visiting the Panama Canal have easy access to the most notable museum in Panama: the Frank Gehry-designed Museum of Biodiversity. It opened in 2014 and was designed to remind visitors of their relationship with the natural world.

Panama’s incredible biodiversity makes ecotourism very important. Camping, bird watching, hiking, sailing, whale watching and zip lining are all ways for travelers to experience Panama’s natural beauty. Surfing in Panama is world-class and some of the best in Central America. Panama’s well-maintained highways allow quick access to surf spots, whether it’s on the Pacific side or the Caribbean side.

The fish market, located at the end of Balboa Avenue, is the perfect place to experience part of Panama’s fishing industry. Fishermen take their daily catch right from the sea to the market, which is open every day and has many on-site restaurants. The market is known for its ceviche, which is the freshest you’ll ever taste.

Though it’s not as well-known of a tourist destination as its neighbor Costa Rica, Panama still has a lot to offer its visitors. It’s one of the best-kept secrets in Central America.
