Visit the Fetish Market in Ho and Its Traditional Workshops

In the Volta Region, the city of Ho offers a lesser-known but fascinating side worth discovering: its old fetish market and traditional workshops where masks, drums, and ritual objects are crafted. Unlike large tourist centers, this cultural corner is deeply rooted in local traditions and keeps ancestral practices alive.

Visitors to the market can meet healers, learn about medicinal plants, see talismans used in ceremonies, and even take part in demonstrations (always respectfully and with local guidance). Ho is also a great base to explore nearby waterfalls like Wli and Amedzofe.

This activity invites Ghanaians themselves to appreciate their cultural heritage from a different perspective — with curiosity, respect, and openness. It’s a unique, meaningful, and enriching excursion, perfect for those looking to reconnect with the roots of their land.
