From the frantic Accra capital (and a very hectic bus station), we moved on to calmer, Ghanaian pastures: Akosombo and the second largest artificial lake in the world, created to build a dam that powers most of Ghana and even Togo and Benin.
The dam was build between 1961 and 1965, by the same Italian company that build the Kariba dam, on the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia. Visits are allowed by the Volta River Authority, which we of course happily took part in.
