Sometimes, it's possible to go to the top (for a small donation) where you have a very nice view of Black Star Square (you can see all the way to Osu Castle and the lighthouse)

Independence Arch in Accra stands as a monumental testament to Ghana's journey towards freedom and its attainment of independence. Located prominently within the Independence Square, this arch is a powerful symbol of Ghana's liberation from colonial rule and a tribute to its founding father, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
The arch itself is an architectural marvel, adorned with detailed carvings and symbols that encapsulate themes of patriotism, unity, and national pride. Its imposing stature within the Independence Square adds to the gravitas of the site and offers visitors a visual treat that speaks volumes of Ghana's historical journey.
While exploring Independence Square, it's essential for visitors to recognize the individual significance of its components. Notably, the Independence Arch should not be mistaken for the nearby Black Star Square. Although in close proximity and part of the broader complex, each has its unique history and symbolism.
In summary, the Independence Arch, as a central feature of the Independence Square, is an embodiment of Ghana's spirit, resilience, and pride. A visit to Accra would be incomplete without experiencing this emblematic site. And while immersed in its history, it's crucial to appreciate its distinct role within the larger Independence Square and not conflate it with the neighboring Black Star Square.
