Telling stories through the lens of a Ghanaian Photographer.
I visited Hohoe with my Dji Drone
Hohoe is a vibrant township located in the Volta Region of Ghana, nestled in the foothills of the Akwapim-Togo mountain range. Its history is closely tied to the Ewe people, who migrated to the area from Notsie in present-day Togo in the 17th century to escape persecution. Over time, the township became a hub for trade, agriculture, and cultural interaction due to its strategic location between Ghana and neighboring Togo.
During the colonial era, Hohoe developed further as a center for commerce and education under British administration. It is now the capital of the Hohoe Municipality, playing a significant role in regional governance and development.
The town is known for its proximity to natural attractions such as Wli Waterfalls (the highest in West Africa) and the Tafi Atome Monkey Sanctuary, making it a key destination for eco-tourism in Ghana. It is also a cultural hub, hosting traditional festivals like the Gbidukorza, which celebrates Ewe heritage and unity.

This monument is located at the Black Star Square in Accra the capital city of Ghana.
Where are the proprietors of the place? What is the local tourism authority saying about this? If only they knew the potential, they are allowing to go to waste........ What hunger and poverty can do!!!

@@okunkapixels *Salutes. Thank you for your kind appreciation bud!
While we were gearing up to go to Iraq, we had some weapons competition in the down time. I did my best to hide from the festivities till my Platoon Sgt. found me. Going in cold, hadn't taken apart an M-16 in ages except for cleaning, they put me against the fastest in the platoon, this kid knew all about his weapons. Breaking it down right to the firing pin, buffer spring and all, I beat him by 4 seconds lol. Then we had a timed breaking it down and re-assembly. Beat him by 10 seconds. 1.43. They all started chanting at me.... Old School! Old School! Then that became my nick name. Granted I had already been in for 20 years and a Sgt, I should recall things like that like second nature.
@@Silverado1st amazing stuff.
@@Silverado1st Nostalgic memories I guess.
