The Citi FM Heritage Caravan will also take travelers to Nzulenzu where the whole of the village sits on stilt. In the Central Region, the well-known Cape Coast castle, which is one of the most famous slave “castles, built in 1653 will be our destination.
In the Ashanti region, the team will visit the Manhyia Palace Museum.
