    The historic James Fort in Jamestown, Accra, is a fascinating destination where history comes alive. Built in 1673 by the Royal African Company of England, the fort once served as an important trading post for gold and slaves. Today, visitors can admire its impressive architecture and learn about its significant role in the past. Although not perfectly preserved, the fort offers impressive views of the coast and the area surrounding Jamestown. A visit here is an unforgettable journey into Ghana's history!
