Makola Market

Wow oh wow, first I recommend to walk in from blocks away because the traffic to enter is insane. Some cars stayed on the same spot for over 40 mins. Walk in to save time. But this market has everything you need. Anything. You just have to find it. The streets are very very crowded and the sites of vendors all over can be overwhelming. But take your time and shop. I don't really bargain with the vendors because I support them. But you can negotiate if you like. Walk with small change and a comfy footwear. A must when in Ghana . Enjoy!! Thank me later

Markola, which sterms from the Ga phrase "Ma K) la" which translates, "I will fetch Fire" is one of the popular location and the busiest market in Accra. Makolar market and shopping mall has numerous vendors selling food stuff to fabrics and home appliances. If one is looking to cart food stuff on a large scale when ever in Ghana, especially Accra Makola is the best place to be. It is important to note that there are several car parks in close proximity to the market hence there isn't a problem when you go with your car. In summary, you'd love the busy market , cheap goods and nice vibe when ever you visit Makola.

Hot, busy and exciting! My personal guide was a life saver!❤️ He was so patient.

This is the balogun market of ghana i suppose. I haven't seen all their markets but I would say this one is.similar to lagos island market it felt more like home.with those boys saying sweet aunty buy from me na 🤣🤣🤣

An interesting experience of local market. Be prepared to navigate around a very busy maze even in early morning hours.

Makola Market is a cool experience - super busy/crowded for blocks and blocks with just about every item you can think of for purchase. Since it’s so busy, I would recommend coming with very lil personal items as it could be a nuisance while navigating through the crowds. This is more of a traditional market vs a tourist area (I was the only noticeable tourist for hours which drew a bit of attention) but def worth a stop to check out (just brace yourself for some followers if your appearance stands out from the locals)

Bustling busy market. 50% is mostly clothing and fabrics

The heartbeat of the city. Hot, colourful, bustling, smelly, energetic, crazy, crowded and endless. You can easily get lost in the maze of stalls selling everything from fresh vegetables, dried fish, snails, pots/pans, colourful cloth, jewelry, etc. People are friendly but it is really busy, especially on a Saturday afternoon. It was worth the visit and I bought some nice outfits for my wife.
