Wa Naa's Palace, Royal palace in Wa, Ghana
The residence features traditional Sudano-Sahelian architecture with mud-brick walls and Y-shaped wooden columns supporting flat roofs covered in mud.
The construction of Wa Naa's Palace began in the 19th century after the Wala people migrated from Sudan and established their settlement in the region.
The palace functions as the residence for the Wa Naa, where the ruler sits on lion or antelope skin while others use cow or sheep skin.
The palace maintains specific visiting hours and requires visitors to follow local customs when entering the royal grounds and meeting with palace officials.
The front section of the palace contains burial grounds for former kings, marking their final resting place within the royal complex.
