THE DUBAI OF AFRICA - GHANA



Ghana is gradually becoming the Dubai of Africa. Its peaceful political environment has been the motivating factor attracting many investors especially from the real estate sector. The country which has the best mayor in Africa must possess certain traits to merit that accolade. Describing Ghana as the gate way to Africa is seen by many as a parody of Dubai in the Persian Gulf. This might sound true if only we fail to look beyond our modern architectural and constructional developments. A country with a high level of innovative constructions is likely to attract more tourists to it. Tourism now is the major source of revenue for Dubai. And they achieved this by investing into high innovation of construction and sport events. Ghana is tolling that same path in its recent developments as the country’s real estate developers are now focusing on constructing large innovative edifices which could only be seen in developed countries. This post is to draw your attention to some of the amazing constructions that are the first of its kind on the continent but are built right here in Ghana.
 
 
 
 
Accra has seen enough development in terms of construction. It has the most secured gated community in west Africa designed by Trasacco Development Company Ltd. Trasacco Valley is known for its high level of security presence within its estates. This has attracted high profile personalities and celebrities in the West African Sub-Region including footballers and Reverend fathers to own home within the community.  
 
 
 
Another magnificent structure is the Rattray Park. The park is the first of its kind to be constructed in Africa. It is sitting on more than 10 acres of land in Kumasi a region in Ghana. It has 600 sq. meters of dancing fountain which is the first of its kind in the continent. It also has a children playing ground, Wi-Fi internet connectivity, a gym among many other facilities. This park will be the new destination for many tourists who are planning to visit Africa.
 
 
 
 
The on-going Petronia city in the Western Region will become the most expensive and luxurious city in the continent. This city when completed will be the first fully integrated business hub for Africa’s Oil and Gas industries. Within this city, there will also be the Energy City and the Gulf city. The Energy city will also be the first of its kind in the sub region. The Golf city which will be developing on a 365 acre of land will also be the first to be seen in West Africa. International Championship will be organized in this city and lovers of Golf their wealthy sympathizers will travel into the country. This city has already attracted the attention of some international media houses including CNN.
Ghana will very soon be the tourist hub for many expatriates who visit Africa. This is just the beginning of the new Africa.
