“We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us” is a quote I really enjoy when it comes to travel. Life has got its own ups and downs but it must be lived well. Tourism is the act of traveling to different places (sceneries) of interest to have fun and relaxation. “The first condition of understanding a foreign country is to smell it” says Rudyard Kipling. Ghana can boast of many tourist sites in its various regions. These tourist sites include Paga Crocodile Pond, Wli Falls, Kakum National Park, Akosombo Dam, Larabanga mosque and many more.



These tourist sites can be a place of relaxation where foreigners and Ghanaians take time off their busy work schedules to relax and cool down. Some benefits of tourist sites are explained below:
Tourist sites generates income to the government by means of the dues and tax we pay by visiting the places. This intend helps in the development of the country. Also, the parks serves as a game reserve . Animals of different nature are kept there for research purposes and other scientific experiments.
