2 cities in this atlas
Ghana's political capital, Accra, is not its largest settlement; that distinction belongs to Kumasi. The country's major population centers extend along the south, from the coastal cities of Sekondi and Takoradi through Cape Coast and Accra itself, with Tamale standing apart in the north among a cluster of smaller towns and estates spread across the rest of the country.
