British Airways has named Ghana as one of the top countries in the world to travel to this year.

“Ghana today offers a seductive mishmash of 19th-century architecture and increasingly interconnected citizens.

“July 2015 sees the return of Panafest, Ghana’s biennial festival for pan-African culture.

“Big, brash and well attended, Panafest will include a parade of chiefs in full regalia and cultural events at the region’s castles and forts,” the website of British Airways said.

The other countries listed as top countries for visit this year include Belgium, Brazil, Britain, Croatia and Malaysia.

According to British Airways, the list of top countries for travel this year was compiled by the Airline’s travel experts.
