Kumasi is the Mecca of tradition and culture , everything in Kumasi is history and culture, you can literally smell the culture in the air. Is the only region in Ghana that are bond with one language. The Asante tribe are inseparable when it comes to community and the king is highly revealed and respected.
We hear

My stay in Kumasi 1966 to 1974 was most beautiful period in my life. Working in PWD and travelling in every village of Ashanti and Brong Ahafo regions, i was in contact with those beautiful villagers. Feeder roads,low-cost housing projects were hallmark of my stay. Work in the Cultural Centre with Dr Kyeremateng made me a proud Ashanti. Playing Ghanian classical tunes of Dr Amu on flute was my favorite pastime. Oh,Ghana I miss you.
Kumasi is an ancient city so seeing old buildings shouldn't be surprised
Garden city Kumasi very beautiful in everything
Kumasi is a capital city for two separate entities.
It is the capital city of Ashanti region, which is a government and political administrative region of Ghana.
It is also the capital city of the Asante confederacy, which covers six regions of Ghana.
Oh my God my dear virtuegrace thanks for sharing dear, Kumasi is so nice and I'm happy that I showed you around this way. Keep moving forward my dear. I love you, we all love you
Thank you my brother, I appreciate everything. Stay blessed and safe
2 of my favourite 9ja TH-camrs at my place of birth. I am half Nigerian half Ghanaian. So anything concerning both countries melts my heart ❤❤❤.. Welcome to my city Grace and thank you Sunny Chima for showing her around...🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Awww, thank you so much. Kumasi is really a beautiful city
@@africanstoryteller you are most welcome sweetheart to the Garden City. OSEIKROM
My husband is Ghanaian. He’s from Kumasi. I can’t wait to visit sometime this year. 🇬🇭 🇬🇭
Wow never seen the city like in this video. Good job! Look at how our fellow Africans are enjoying our city and doing business while l am in a foreign land afraid to come home. I am coming down with no fear. I belong there too.
I watched it 2 yrs ago and watching it again today
Kumasi is a beautful city, very nice, thanks.
Kwame Ukrumah University of Science and Tecknology (KNUST) was decleared The best University in West Africa.
By who. Support your information with verifiable fact. Which ranking?
Boy stop lies, even legon UG is 6th in West Africa by the association of ECWAS Universities in 2016.
@@amosadewuni460 google and and find out KNUST is now the best in west Africa 2021, it is really true
@@luckyawadzi3337 You have said nothing. What source on the internet. You quote your source. The internet is full of data, some credible while many are not credible source of information. There are credible international ranking organisation that ranks the universities in the world. So any information should be supported with a reliable source. I can sit in my room and rank all universities in the west africa based on my perspective but does that make it reliable? No. Overtime the

Well done sister because you can't go to GHANA without you visiting the Ashanti region 😉💚💚💚💚✌💯
The royal name of kumasi is " OSEI KROM"
I’m From Kumasi ❤Greetings From Portugal 🇵🇹 Lisbon
Kumasi is one of the most studied cities in sub Sahara Africa by Europeans especially British scholars.
Really
Yup they were fascinated by our architecture, culture, and our sophistication stole many things from us and burned the original city down
Kumasi is very beautiful, historic and vibrant. Beautiful dress! Amazing co presenter! Your Dress is so beautiful! This this most beautiful produced video. It just gets better!
Girl you are not playing! Wow! You are taking content to the next level in every upload. I just love how well mixed the edit shot is. You are too smart.
Nicely produced👌🏾
Yes, Kumasi is beautiful, it is definitely more than I imagined. Thank you very much, I've missed you but you know why😊
@@africanstoryteller 👍🏾👍🏾
Wow...the people of Ghana seem so cordial in this video.😁👍🏽👍🏽
Yes, they are
Kumasi is business only, no time wasting 😂😂😂
The people from Kumasi you show at the beginning of this video make me respect this city. Kofi Annan was the only black person with a high position, Kofi Kingston ........man, this place produced assets, stars ........
You can say that again. They're many, I just mentioned a few
She mentioned only a small number
Kofi people be great
Waiting for you on my channel dear
That is not accurate? The first black President of the UN General Assembly was Mr. Alex Quayson-Sackey also Ghanaian. There were several other high profile Ghanaians in the UN up to DSRSG level but Kofi was the first black Secretary-General (SG). A quick search will show you more.
I visited Kumasi in August 2021, my first time to Ghana. It was very interesting, I drove around like I do in New York. Listening to you all, brings back memories of when I was there. I visited all these areas you are speaking of. I cannot wait for Kumasi Airport to be opened in June 2022. Very nice place!
Welcome to kumericans. Keep up the good work .
Shame, what is the meaning of kumerica
Nice one my sister
Your friend sounds like a Ghanaian now👍😄
That's what Kumasi does to you. It will migrate you fully. Kumasi has made white people speaking TWI in parables.... Awesomely and undeniably the most cultural city in Ghana without a doubt.....❤❤❤
You are welcome to Kumasi the world 🌍🌎🌍🌎🌍🌍🌍
I love this video clip. Amazing to watch. THANKS.
This is very interesting. I like to see the style of the buildings and other distinctly local features.
You mentioned Kente: this reminds me of the song *Bonwire Kente* by Ephraim Amu, whom I understand to be an important figure in Ghanaian culture.
Beautiful place!
Kumasi is beautiful my Homeland still in Kumasi Abuakwa
Great intro and a highlight of Kumasi heritage
Komfo Anokye commanded a stool from the sky (The stool that he is carrying in the statue) that synbolizes the power and the unity of the Ashanti people. He also planted sword at where the hospital is locate. It's been there for over 300 years. No one has been able to take it out
Komfo Anokye inserted a miracle sword at where the hospital was build and no one including Mohammed Ali was able to uproot it when they located the sword during the construction. It was a secret award underneath it consist of various kings stools who relinquished their power to support one that komfo Anokye golden stool fell on him from the sky during his powerful display. They said even the excavator couldn't uproot it. So they left the sword and has become a tourist attraction and also name the hospital after him. Wish the guy took you there
The Ashanti’s king don’t live in manhyia palace,manhyia palace only serves as a court and administrative purposes.
Almost all the great people in Ghana were born in Kumasi Kofi Annan ,Kofi Kingston, president J A Kuffour , king of Ashanti, nana AMA Mcbrown, Thomas Mensah(President and CEO of Georgia Aerospace Systems),Gyakie, Yaw tog ,former head of state Acheampong ,
But the greatest Ghanaian & African leader was born in Nkroful in the Western region-Dr. President Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah
@@williamaidoo6996 ah
@@williamaidoo6996 I think it will be Kofi Annan
@@mistybils6711 Oh, no. You cannot compare Kofi Annan with Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah in terms of vision for Africa.If Africans had listened to him, we wouldn't be like this today.

Kumasi to the world
Oh Grace, you and Sunny are the best. Great content, many thanks for taking us along the beautiful city of kumasi
Thank you 🤗
Ashantis we’re very proud of ourselves. We’re wise and rich
My lovely keepup good job.
I love the country Ghana 🇬🇭
I had an amazing time in Kumasi. I must follow Sunny Chima to get around & see more of this beautiful city. Nana Ama McBrown is also one of my favorite Ghanaian Actresses🌟 since I was an Independent Nollywood Film Distributor & Specialist. TH-cam took over & collapsed the pre existing Nollywood international industry. Among many meaningful & better quality films I sold a beautiful, authentic, true story that Ama McBrown played Queen Mother👑 who was actually born on my birthday. Also a historic film called Golden Stool that included the Uncle who helped to establish Kumasi & prophesied the teaching hospital named for him.
The king doesnt live in the palace. His office is in the palace
Thank you for this information
@@africanstoryteller The Manhyia palace is the official residence and office of the Asantehene. The current Asantehene has chosen to reside in his personal residence but that does not imply that the Manhyia Palace is not the official residence of the Asantehene
Otumfour stays in the manhyia palace
Interesting !
Beautiful
This is the capital city of the great Asante empire,
this guy gave me a good laugh with greetings ,etesen, nyame adom etc ,nice BRO
I'm missing my home region 😢

I really enjoyed watching this video! The only famous person I know who's from Ghana is the late Kofi Annan. Anyway, great video. I'm gonna check out Sunny Chima and give him some love.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yes, Kofi Annan was from Kumasi. There are lots of other famous people from Kumasi
Please kofi annan is not from Kumasi but was brought up in kumasi he is from central Region
@@francisyeboah8697 kofi Annan was born in kumasi fanti new town near dunkirk ,I know his house,so stop throwing dust in our eyes too .The fact that he was bred in kumasi doesn't make him an ashanti.I personally was bred in kumasi fanti new town ,do that make me an ashanti?Do you know only ghanaian language kofi annan was speaking was fanti
am very proud as a kumasi guy

Just for your information, Dr Thomas Mensah, the world famous inventor of fibre optics is also from Kumasi.
Big, busy market area.
The King doesn't live at Manhyia Palace. It is where his office is as well as the Musuem. The King lives elsewhere

Welcome to my town Akwaaba
Grace,I like your dress,it look so beautiful on you,
Thank you 🤗💕
The only Garden city in west Africa
No, it's not
Ghana is to Nigeria as Nigeria is to Ghana
Ghana's two major cities are largely in the opposite, though in terms of population, they are close. One very modern, one very old. Accra a modern city and world class city, Kumasi, a traditional and antique city.
Accra is not a world class city, not even close, what de hell are u smoking though modern than kumasi,, quickly retract that shit
@@ericoduro5609 Accra is a world class city, and Kumasi a typical African city. Like it or leave it. The fact that New York, Dubai or Beijing is far ahead of Accra doesn't mean Accra is not a world class city. The Government, corporate organizations, diplomatic missions, and big individuals have contributed a lot with their investments and citing of their headquarters in Accra over the years to make it one of the highly rated cities in Africa and beyond. Kumasi has remained the same since Ashanti joined the Gold Coast in the mid 1940s. If there's a plus for Kumasi, then it is on the fact that it is a self made city, a historical and traditional city, and the fact that it has been able to hold its economic relevance as the second most important city Ghana even in the face of near Government neglect. Accra is the face of Ghana, but we still love our Kumasi, and all other cities and towns in Ghana and Africa at large.
I know u are proud of Ghana but Accra is a shitty town, I would not even use city for it.. the fact that Accra have one or two high-rise buildings does not make it a real city.. I would not even argue.. city with no street lights, no public toilets or rest rooms, smells horrible, dirty as hell.. can't even compare Accra to many African cities, masa travel or leave that village and see
@@samsonda-costaboateng5015 Kumasi is more organized than Accra. There are areas in Kumasi that needs upgrade but overall,I like Kumasi vibe.
Well said. Accra is the face of Ghana.
U walked from the roundabout to thr palace? That's quite far?
Yes, we did. I didn't quite feel the distance
@@africanstoryteller cool
Soni is enegertic
Yes, he is
A lot of them, President and CEO of Georgia Aerospace, the manufacturer of Aircraft, and also inventor of viber optics, that electric train like dubai metro and all the metro around the world is using,
Grace, good job. Please try to use a local youtuber with deeper insights about the places he/she is taking you. You even had better knowledge on most of the places than your guide
I try to do that everywhere I go but what happens when the local youtubers aren't available or forthcoming? 🤷
When grace was in tokoradi,she place a demand that if there's any body in kumasi to guide her when coming the person should indicate,so sometimes when the means is not available we use the available to justify the means
@@ominiekwe7241 It was thoughtful of you to be available but a little research on those places would have prepared you to do better. Thanks for being available for her.
You didn't mention kantanka's name, kantanka Autos engineer 1 he's also from kumerica.
Johnny is now a Kumasiano
Enter the hosputal small small
My first one was an Nzema n my second one is an Ashanti but I don't know I change to a other one
No discrimination we are all ghanians
Goodbye: diernea
Good-bye: dier-nea

Sis love your enthusiasm.. correction it is Asante not Ashanti … so Asantehene so it is the. Asante kingdom thank U
