IDARKCONSULT LTD — Attraction in Eastern Region

The beautiful smooth ride from Accra up the is undoubtedly soothing.  The best comes from the Eastern Region. The beautiful landscape, roller coaster ride up the mountain never gets old. But to beat the traffic at Adenta and Pantang Junction you will have not set off early.  Although there’s a bit of a delay at the toll booth it’s nothing The infamous bread sellers welcome you upon reaching the toll booth.  You will get “butter and sugar bread” to buy. But what catches my attention are their names ” God is my helper, Afia bread boutique, sweet bread. Just to name a few. And also the plantain sellers. Do well to buy a loaf of bread. The almighty Palm wine. Now trust me when I say you will find the best palm wine joints there, fresh and cold. Go early for the fresh one’s, at Peduase you will see them lined up ready to serve, very affordable I tell you. You can buy from 10 cedis to 30 cedis depending on the size of the bottle. I always buy when I’m up there.

The weather, such a cold place and be sunny now and start raining heavily in few seconds. As it’s a mountainous area, Aburi is becoming a new place for settlers.  I entreat you to stay overnight to wake up to the dew and thick fog for the full experience.

The boiled maize or corn sellers, my second sought after palm wine. From Peduase all the way up to the gardens you will see indigenes busily arranging their corns in a pan to cook.  You can get on from 2 cedi to 3 cedis, it goes with dried coconut soaked in saltwater. So delicious
