About the region

The Eastern Region rises from the coastal plain into the Akuapem hills. Aburi Botanical Gardens, opened in 1890, is a cool, green place to walk under old trees. Further north, the Akosombo Dam holds back Lake Volta, one of the largest man-made lakes in the world. It suits nature lovers and anyone who wants an easy trip from Accra.
