<p>The mausoleum and memorial of Ghana's founding father — the man who led independence in 1957 and coined the phrase 'Seek ye first the political kingdom.' The park contains the museum of Nkrumah's life, the eternal flame, and the iconic sword-and-shield sculpture. Named in the official Ghana Tourism data as one of the top attractions for both domestic and international visitors. Essential for any heritage or diaspora traveller. Best in the morning. The museum is small but genuinely moving.</p>
