I don’t drink but my story with Ghana is enough to make you tipsy

Introduction: Ghana Ghana, formerly known as the Gold Coast, is located in West Africa, surrounded by C?te d'Ivoire, Burkina Faso and Togo, and is bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the south. It has a land area of ??238,500 square kilometers and a population of 24 million. Ghana is rich in gold, gems, timber and cocoa. Let me interrupt. Before going to Ghana, the Chinese delegation to Africa also visited the headquarters of Ethiopian Airlines and received a warm reception from the chief operating officer and other senior executives of Ethiopian Airlines. During this period, the development history and operating status of Ethiopian Airlines were introduced.

Information that everyone around me wants to know: Ethiopian Airlines was established in December 1945 after the end of World War II and officially started operations in early 1946. It was originally entrusted to Americans to manage, but soon took back its own management and operations. From propeller aircraft to the first jet aircraft in the 1960s, to today's B787, B777-200LR, and Airbus A350***. It first flew to Shanghai, China on February 21, 1973. Ethiopian Airlines flies to 114 destinations around the world except Australia. There are regular flights to and from Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hong Kong in China every day.

This year marks the 70th anniversary of Ethiopian Airlines! In fact, the editor sincerely hopes that more Chinese compatriots will fly on Ethiopian Airlines to experience the beautiful and exotic customs of Africa and Ethiopia. There are really many extraordinary beauties waiting for us to discover. Come on ~ China Tourism Seminar B2B Meeting Held a China Tourism Seminar in Addis Ababa to learn from each other's strengths and held a B2B meeting with local supplier Tos Ethiopia to establish a long-term cooperative relationship. At the same time, China interviewed the head of the Ethiopian Tourism Association. Ethiopian TV also interviewed Dr. Adam Wu, CEO of World Travel Network. At the meeting, officials from the Ethiopian Tourism Administration introduced Ethiopia’s rich tourism resources.

In the evening, the Director of the Ethiopian National Tourism Administration and members of the Chinese delegation had dinner and took photos at the ethnic restaurant *** in Addis Ababa. At this point, the Chinese delegation concluded its inspection of Ethiopia. Some members will fly back to their jobs in the north, Shanghai, and Guangzhou with their deep friendship for the African people. On the morning of June 5, members of the delegation will take an Ethiopian Airlines flight to Ghana in West Africa to continue their inspection visit.

My mind is full of selfishness, let me take another look at this charming Ethiopia. This is Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia. It has its own smile, its own plants and trees, its own pursuit and soul. It seems ordinary, simple and pure here, but it makes me a little drunk.

The interruption is over~ Next up is Drunken Ghana, your eyes may not want to rest! The Chinese delegation rushed to attend the cultural festival that opened in Ashanti Province today. The Chinese delegation went straight from the airport to the Ashanti Cultural Festival.

The Chinese delegation visited Ghana and visited the Ghana National Cultural and Arts Center in Kumasi, Ashanti Province. Kumasi, a garden city in West Africa, the second largest city in Ghana, a cultural center and a world natural and cultural heritage. It has a long history and cultural accumulation. The local people held a welcoming ceremony for the Chinese delegation, performed wonderful ethnic songs and dances, and invited the Chinese delegation to dance and take photos. Each member of the delegation received a special gift, a colorful wristband woven with their name, which was touching.

Little Ashanti, the second largest province in Ghana, is the capital of Kumasi. Although it is a province, there is a supreme king here. The picture shows receiving worship from chiefs and subjects of multiple tribes in the province. The scene was solemn, pious and fanatical. The exotic scenery really opened our eyes. The king also received a special reception from the Chinese delegation.

After all the activities in the morning, at noon, a delegation from China flew from Ashanti to Accra, Ghana. Attend the Ghana Tourism Forum in Accra at 4pm. Figure 1 shows the Minister of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts of Ghana (female) and the Director of the Ghana Tourism Authority (male) attending the meeting.

On the morning of June 7, the Chinese delegation visited the Cape Coast Castle located on the Atlantic Ocean in southern Ghana. The castle was founded by the Swedes in 1553 and was occupied by the British until 1806. For more than two hundred years, the castle has been a hub for buying, selling, imprisoning and transporting slaves. Black slaves snatched away by white people from Ghana and even Africa were concentrated in the underground stone dungeon of the castle. In each of the stone dungeons shown in Figure 2, 200 black slaves were imprisoned. There are several such underground dungeons in the castle. These slaves will be detained for a week or two. After the transport ship arrives in Hong Kong, they will be tied up in underground tunnels and sent to the dock shown in Figure 3, where they will be transported to Europe and the United States and other places for sale. The bloody history of black brothers in history is truly presented before us.

A large wave of beautiful pictures is approaching, don’t panic, continue to enjoy! The Beautiful Atlantic Ocean
